well i'm making feeds at 4oz and Ethan decides how much he wants most of the time he will take 3oz but sometimes drains the bottle! He feeds every 2-3hours.

if baby is gaining weight steadily and happy and content i wouldnt worry about the 'right amount'. i just fed madison as much as often as she wanted and then at 6 weeks i timed her to every3 hours on the advice of my midwife as she said it would encourage her to sleep thru the night which she did straight away xx
