[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How much did he weigh at birth and now at 8 weeks? [/quote] OP here. He was born at 7lbs 12oz and 20.5in. He was 10lbs 14oz and 22.5in. The pediatrician said weight gain should be 1lb a month and he gained a little over 3. He is fed mostly pumped milk and has a bottle of formula ( 4oz) a day. He eats 7x a day and usually eats 28-32oz. Typically it’s 4oz every 2.5-3 hours and then 6oz at bedtime and the night feed because he sleeps 8 hours and then another 2-3 hour stretch. [/quote] That is a LOT of food. [/quote] No, it's not. I EBF my giant baby. One day I had to be gone all day for an appointment and he had a bottle for the first time. I pumped while I was away...he ate 38 ounces and I pumped 40 ounces. Some babies just like to eat. [/quote]
