Hi,
I breastfed my son until 3 weeks ago, he was a hardcore bottle refuser but now it fully on bottles of formula. I'm a bit concerned that he is drink huge quantities (I know, I know- I worried he wasn't drinking enough and now I'm worried it's too much). The guideline amounts for his age are 3 x 7oz bottles in a 24hr period, he is having 7 or 8 bottles of 7oz. Until recently I was breastfeeding on demand and I formula feed on demand now, but previously I wouldn't have known how much volume he was actually getting.
Does this sound like a ludicrous amount? Growth spurt maybe? Any thoughts appreciated
