Hungry milk

Hi all

My little one is 3 weeks and is currently feeding 4oz every 3 hours but sometimes has 5oz and sometimes will only go 1.5-2 hours is it worth trying the hungrier baby milk?!

It doesn't really matter how much baby drinks as long as they are taking roughly 2.5 floz per pound in weight in 24 hours.

So if baby is 10 lb, they should be having roughly 25 floz a day.

If you work it out like that, does baby seem to be taking the right amount?
