Feeding less

[hrbx]

So bare with me while I explain 😂

My little girl is 16 weeks old

She usually had
7:30 - 7oz
10:30 - 6oz
13:30 - 7oz
16:30 - 7oz
18:30 - 7 oz
21:30 - 6oz

The past two days she's gone to having
7:30 - 7oz
13:00 - 7oz
18:30 - 7oz
21:30 - 7oz

She's still sleeping through the night so obviously can't be hungry and is napping slightly less but no crazy changes with those

Is this normal? Feel like I'm being a stereotypical first time mum 😅

Thanks in advance for any help / advice

Was she finishing all the bottles to begin with and is she finishing them all now?

@NuffSaidSam

She was finishing all but her half 10 which she'd finish at least 4 or 5 oz and then her last bottle which tbh she was just using to settle herself to sleep

Now she's guzzling them all

Bump - anyone 😅

If she is following her growth chart for weight and length I'd not worry in the slightest. Internet says At this stage your baby may be drinking up to 6 to 8 ounces of formula per feeding every four to six hours — but limit the total intake to no more than 32 to 36 ounces per 24-hour period

I think she's drinking about the right amount, unless she's very big? Keep an eye on her weight and see how she goes.

@ZooKeeper19 oooh thank you for that link!

@NuffSaidSam she's only little haha, she's perfectly happy in herself, thought I might have been worrying about nothing 😅 thank you!
