Should my 4 month old be eating this much?

Question

I feel like my 4 month old eats alot for dinner but I don't know. I give her baby food now by doctors orders and she eats 1 small jar of baby food for dinner and a 3 oz. bottle....is this alot or normal? I just feed her until she doesnt want anymore.

Answer 1

That sounds ok to me. Do you give her cereal in the morning? Just be sure to feed with a spoon and not in a bottle.  

Answer 2

only 3 oz bottle for dinner and before bedtime?   doesn't sound like enough... most 4 months old are drinking about 5-7 oz at a time... 5-6 times a day...  maybe cut back on the jar food until baby is getting atleast 28-30 oz of formula in per day

Answer 3

it seems like very little bottle to me. i'd give more bottle 1st and less food after. talk to the doctor again maybe you miss understood ?
