I hve 3 week old and he seems to b feeding a lot I hve been getting contradicting advise from docs and midwifes and not sure wat to do!!! In hospital he wouldn't feed at all breast or bottle I eventually got him to take bottle but now he seems to b carried away he is asking for food every 2 hours and taking a full newborn bottle which is over 4oz 125ml. The midwife said he is eating too much and to limit his food but wasn't clear about how much to give , the health visitor said if he taking a certain amount consistantly for 24 hours add an oz and the doc said feed him wen he wants too b fed!! I am really worried about over feedin I want him to b fat and healthy but bot obese and unhealthy !!! Any ideas wat ti do or similar circomstnces???
