Re: How many ounces?
I would say 3oz and if she is taking take well you can increase it to 4oz but I would start with 3oz of formula.
ETA thats what we started with. Don't be worried if she doesn't take the full bottle though.

Alex was born almost 10lbs and 2oz was not enough for him. He was drinking 4oz every 3hrs.
