I've got my DD (10 weeks) on Neocate for allergies and reflux and we've been struggling to feed her as per the rule of thumb 2.5 ounces of formula per pound of body weight each day (Baby centre).

My baby is 9 pounds, so this would imply about 22.5 oz of formula per day. However I have just actually read the guidance on the Neocate tin and it recommends 18 oz per day until a baby is 3 months.
Is Neocate more filling than other formulas? Do you find that your baby is full on less Neocate that he/she was on previous formulas e.g. Aptamil?
Thanks!!
