Is this ok??????????????

Question

My son is 4 weeks old. He eats four ounces every 2 to 3 hours. Longer at night when he is asleep but is that an ok amount and time frame? He is bottle fed formula.

Answer 1

At 1 month our Dr said 4 oz every 3-4 hrs  

Answer 2

they say that u should feed them when thay are hungry and feed them till they are full..but never try to force more food.

Answer 3

that sounds about right. some babies will be hungrier than others anyway. so as long as he seems satisfied and he is bringing up his wind regularly then there should be no problem  

Answer 4

if he is hungry feed him, only you as his mother can tell.

Answer 5

That is the same amount that my son ate and dont worry about your son will eat when he is hungry and will not overeat

Answer 6

My son is going to be 4 weeks this week and that's what he has been eating.  Same time frame as well.   So I'm glad that you asked b/c I was wondering the samething:)  Congrats!

Answer 7

Sounds like a perfect amount if your baby seems satisfied and content.
