[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just one small observation - when the scale is consistently saying 0.5 oz gained after a feed - that's somewhere between 0.25 and 0.75 oz, which is a huge range that could be massively magnified over the course of 20 feeds in a day. So I wouldn't worry at all about "too much" food - not clear they're getting 28 (or however many) oz in the way you'd know a formula-fed baby is. [/quote] OP here. I’m not concerned because the pediatrician said to try to get 20 ounces in him in the first month and then it’s minimum of 24 ounce and max of 32 ounces. He said most babies average 24-32 ounces a day. [/quote] I EBF’d two babies for over 18 months each. I never not once ever measured one of their feedings or weighed them before and after. Your obsession with ounces is not normal or healthy. Your baby is healthy and gaining. You are working your way toward full blown PPA. [/quote]
