bottle feeding a 13 week old - how do i know when to stop???

[bumbly]

...or when he has had enough?

before he used to fall alsepp towards end of feed but now he rarely does do in the day

and he keeps playing with teat spitting it in and out - but could that also mean he is full?!

I really really dont want to overfeed him

getting a bit worried!

any advice appreciated!

if he drains the bottle, then add another ounce. if not, and he does not finish , and he is weeing and pooing ok, and happy and alert, he is getting enoug

sorry i mean enough during a feed as in when do i stop giving him the bottle itself

not as in enought generally

Take it away and wind him, try again if he still seems hungry. Sometimes they just like to play with it, it's a new sensation etc. If he seems happy enough after you've winded him, or carries on playing with it he's probably had enough for the time being.

oh i see.

if he is getting bored, and not feeding, tehn take the bottle away and do soemthing else.

my DD was a snacker, little and often, never really took big feeds.

bottle is ok for an hour once it has been made up

dd and babyTwit were the same, although ds1 &2 wanted it quickly.
