How much should a 6 week old eat?

Just feed him when he's hungry. My son is 7 weeks & eating 4oz every 3-4 hrs. I'm constantly comparing him to a friends son who is 2 weeks older & eating less than my son. I actually asked the pedi & one good point she made, my son was almost 2 lbs heavier than hers at birth!!!!! I received a 'guide' from Enfamil and for his age; 3-5 oz every 2-4 hrs, so you're good!!

when there that old 4 oz at a time is a good start but its all feed on demand you have to go by the feel or so our little guy fed 4oz every couple of hours but it depends on the child

If the baby drinks the entire amount prepare one oz. more. Baby knows how much to drink. I think he will settle for 3 to 4 hourly feeds.

that must be super and no count if it quite is not, that surgeon ought to tell you quickly adequate. babies at that age commonly purely consume what they like. There would nicely be exceptions, however the surgeon visits are close adequate to capture any issues. whilst he starts off eating good foodstuff watch to verify if he gets too chunky. The human physique develops the quantity of fat cells it could have from 0-3 years previous. Having a corpulent 12 - sixteen month previous isn't a healthful element.

My daughter was eating 4oz every 4h at 6 weeks she is now 8 weeks and eats 5oz. Feed on demand

Feed it a bunch of Burgers and at least 3 milk shakes a day.

for the first month babies should eat about 4oz, between weeks and 2 months the baby can eat up to 6 weeks

Demand feed, so if that's how much he's wanting to eat then that's just fine.

have u tried changing the milk if ur not breastfeeding it, the milk may not be strong enought for the lill man,
