How much should my 5 month old be eating for whole day? is the amount?

She eats every 3-4 hours. Breast-feed 10 mins each side. She doesn't cry for more after. she has one solid at night for dinner and one formula if she is hungry.

She sleep thought night by 2 months ( feeding her formula at night time)

She going to be 6 month in 2 weeks.

I know feeding should be increasing.

Her last check-up her weight was fine.

I do not wanted to over feeding my baby.

    7:30 1/4 Cup Oatmeal and One Seven Ounce Bottle

    11:00 One Jar Stage II or Two Jars Stage I Baby Food and Seven Ounce Bottle

    3:00 Seven Ounce Bottle

    6:00 1/4 Cup Brown Rice Cereal and Seven Ounce Bottle

    6:30 BedTime until 6:30AM

    each baby is different. if your baby doesnt cry for more and your doctor said everything seems fine, then i wouldnt worry about it.
