Baby Feeding is an important part for parenting―some like to snack more often, and others drink more at one time and go longer between feedings. However, most babies will drink more and go longer between feedings as they get bigger and their tummies can hold more milk: Most newborns eat every 2 to 3 hours, or 8 to 12 times every 24 hours. Babies might only take in half ounce per feeding for the first day or two of life, but after that will usually drink 1 to 2 ounces at each feeding. This amount increases to 2 to 3 ounces by 2 weeks of age. · At about 2 months of age, babies usually take 4 to 5 ounces per feeding every 3 to 4 hours. · At 4 months, babies usually take 4 to 6 ounces per feeding. · At 6 months, babies may be taking up to 8 ounces every 4 to 5 hours. Most babies will increase the amount of formula they drink by an average of 1 ounce each month before leveling off at about 7 to 8 ounces per feeding. Solid foods should be started at about 6 months old. Source: healthychildren.org #Shunggle #TheBabyShop #BabyCareShop
