HI...first time mom here...I am using pump only to feed my newborn (she is 6 days old). How many ozs. should she be drinking? I have been feeding her every three hours and she has been drinking about 2 ozs. each time. Is this enough? When should she start drinking more? Thanks!

I'd just have enough readily available at each feeding that she eats till she's full.. now after that 2oz, be sure to burp her, as a burp will make her feel full.. so burp her and offer her the bottle again. If she takes it, let her, if not, she must be fine with that 2oz! Although, I think mine was eating around 2oz up until 2 weeks or so....

my baby is two months and she still drinks about 2 1/2 Oz. as long as she is gaining enough weight, you should see at your 2 week appt. she is getting enough. don't worry like mam-beans said burp her and if she still wants more let her feed until she feels full. they usually push it out when they are done or just not suckle anymore. god luck
