150*baby body weight ÷ no. Of feeds. To see the min. Of how much baby should eat. If ur bb clock is 3 hrs interval then u use hand count.. Best is 12am to 12am. If bm is + 20-30%
100 seems a lot! My 2.5 month old baby is only taking 120ml. You can use the formulae as a rough gauge. (150 x weight ) / no of feeds
You can ask the nurses how much they feed your baby for the first day after birth and follow them for few days then increase it accordingly a
They ask me how Long I feed my baby for each breast hahah. And they didn’t give any formula for my baby.
My 1 week old baby took 60 mL 3 hourly. I increased 5 mL each week thereafter.
60ML and I'll feed once he is awake and start crying...
My then 1 week old baby was only taking 30ml per feed
I always start lower amount but this nanny said she’s not full then when I’m sleeping she add on more formula!!!
60 to 70ml per feed every 2 to 3 hrs.
my pd said 40-60ml last time
About 50 to 60ml for mine.
Mine only drank about 30ml
