still only drinking 4oz?

DD is a couple days over 3 months and she is still only eating 4oz at a time. Should she be eating more per feeding by now?

How many of those 4oz bottles is she having. If she has 6 feedings then she is getting 24 ounces in a day and I think that is fine.

I've tried giving her a 6oz bottle and she always stops after eating 4oz.

Re: still only drinking 4oz?

like the other poster said if she is taking 6 bottles in 24 hours she is okay. why are you trying to feed her 6 ozs?

Don't feed her 6 ounces if she doesn't want it. If she shows signs that she is still hungry then up the ounces.

If she is ready try 5 instead of 6...

DD is 5 months old and just started drinking 5 and sometimes 6 oz bottles. Today she had mostly 4 oz bottles. As long as her Ped isn't concerned about growth, don't worry about it.
