Formula fed DD sick this morning

I know loads o babies are sick and it is normal. But we where lucky enought that our DD has only been sick twice in 13 weeks, so this morning she fed at 5.30 as normal, went back to sleep. But after the 9.30 feed she was sick everywhere, 3 times. So I supposed she didn't keep any of the milk down. Then she lloked really sleepy and now she is sleep in the bouncy chair (don't want to lie her down just in case).

I don't know when to feed her again, how much? we feed her every 4 hour in a routine because she cried a lot in the early days so we didn't know when she was hungry. Now she very rarelly cries even if she is hungry (can hear her tummy!) so we feed her every 4 hours.

Should I try when she wakes up with say 3 oz.? But I am worried that she hasn't had any milk since 5.30

Sorry about the spelling mistakes I am dislexic and didn't double check the post

Oh! and we don't wake her up at night, the 4 hourly fed is during the day only. At night she happily stays 7-8 hours sleep.

Just given her 4oz (she normally takes 7) and maybe give her another 3 in a couple of hours, and feed her little and often today until bed time?

Does this sound ok?

This post feels a bit like a monologue

little and often is probably best. has she been sick since 9.30am?

Thanks for your reply.

No, she took the 4oz very well, and didn't want more after she finished; and now she is sleep again. When she wakes up I will give her another 3 or 4 oz. I don't know what to do if she wants more though, she normally lets us know if she is not satisfied!
