Hi all.

My daughter is a great sleeper and has slept through from 6 weeks. She is tall for her age. She is formula fed (I was unable to breast feed)...up until last week she had been having 6x7oz bottles which I thought was a lot. Last 4 nights she's been waking in the night and having 8x7oz bottles in a day. Is this likely just a growth spurt? Or normal amount of milk? Any thoughts and also experiences with hungry baby much appreciated! Thanks!

As long as her weight in line with her centile then all is good. Remember she shouldn’t be draining bottles and if she is then you need to offer more milk.

Thanks. Yeah she is just a big baby. She doesn't drain her bottles usually leaves a bit but then about 2hrs later will be hungry again.
