my daughter takes about 2-3 oz every 2-3 hours even through the night she has about 12 bottles a day.i,m sure she is always still hungry after each feed but because she takes the bottle that quickly will not take any more and will not bring up her wind .she gulps her bottle down and sucks that hard that i cannot get the bottle out of her mouth to wind her half way through the feed.i have tried faster teats to stop her sucking so hard,please any advice will be appreciated.
