only 3ozs..

DD2 has been breasfeed and I am making the transistion to bottle feeding, she is 4 mnths next week. She is small 10 12 and on 2nd centile so think just has a little tummy. She is on a 3 hour EASY routine but usually only takes 3/4 ozs from a bottle - is this ok?! What can I do to get her to take more? Should I try to increase time between feeds or not worry about it??

I would let take as much as she wants and feed her whenever she seems hungry. As she gets used to the bottle she may take more, but she may just be a little and often kinda baby.

My DS was a big lad, but he generally averaged 3-5 ozs every 2-3hrs in the day right up he started droppping feeds after weaning. He's still the same now, prefering several small meals rather than a few big ones.

my ds is 16 wks and breastfed. when i express i usually manage to get 3oz out so maybe that is a full feed for that age?
hope that helps

I dont know because ds2 was only breastfed for 5 days.
But he is now 14 weeks and drinking 6oz 4 hrly.
