I am breast feeding Nathaniel but giving him a bottle of formula just before bed so my OH can do it. He has taken a bottle no problem and is happy to swop from nipple to bottle without fuss.
He is just over 2 weeks old and I was wondering how much he is meant to be having in a bottle? I can't tell how much he is taking from the breast in the day but last night he downed 80ml (3oz) from a bottle and desperately wanted more. I don't want to overfeed him as his tummy is still so small. How much were your LO's taking in each bottle around 2/3 weeks? Can I up the amount? I am sure I read that at this stage they were meant to be taking 40ml each bottle??? Help!!!
