How much expressed milk for a 4 week old?

[clareanna]

Hi - I have a 4 week old who weights 8lbs 14oz. I have started expressing and just wondered how much BM I should give him in a feed at this age/weight? 4oz?
Thanks in advance - don't want to waste my precious milk stock!

Try offering in smaller amounts then if he doesnt take it all you've not wasted loads. Perhaps keep it in 2oz bags/bottles. Better to defrost/open another bag than waste what he's not used.

Brilliant- thanks for your help will look at calculator. Am only getting 2oz off at a time so have lots of 2oz bags ready to go!
