how much does you bottle fed baby drink?

Hello,

My dd is 11 weeks old tomorrow (eeeek goes to quick!) and iv been told she feeds a lot! I was just wondering what other people's little ones were like in comparison,
She is currently drinking 35oz in a 24hour period, 7oz every 3 hours 5 times a day then sleeps through.
She was born at 6.7lbs and never lost any weight, she weighed 11.11lb on Wednesday when she would of been 10 +4 weeks.

I would like to add she was breastfed for the first few days of her life however I was advised (by a midwife) to stop as she wouldn't latch properly and instead just wanted to chew!

Thanks in advance for your input!
Xx

DD is 14 weeks was 6lb 8oz at birth, is now 13lb 4oz. She has 32oz spread over 5oz and sleeps through the night. I feed her 3hrly during the day. She's on SMA gold, there guidelines suggest 35oz over 5 feeds by 4mobts old. Not sure of the guidelines for other formulas. The guidelines also state to feed on demand so I wouldn't worry too much as long as he's happy

Thanks everybody for your input,
I feed my daughter when she wants it and never force her to feed, so I really don't get how some people can think I'm over feeding her, just one of those things I suppose!
