    Breastmilk amount per bottle

    @katrina2017 If my baby was still hungry after 4oz more breastmilk would be put in the bottle, there are definitely days this is the case. But after a 4oz bottle baby is content, and no one else who watches the baby says 4oz isn’t enough…it’s only them.

    Breastmilk amount per bottle

    @outdoorsy I think this site is what my MIL was referencing in her reasoning behind the 8oz bottles. the wording is horrible and leaves too much room for discussion/ interpretation

    @leigh2222 I did weighted feeds when baby was younger, trust me I thought that would help my argument.

    Breastmilk amount per bottle

    @roboryan Yep and we’ve also started introducing solids at dinner (another discussion with the in laws, I’m sure I’ll be back here regarding that at some point….). Baby is gaining weight beautifully, actually jumped quite a few percentiles, is hitting milestones, is happy. Zero cause for...

    Breastmilk amount per bottle

    @bronwynm Keep it up! My baby was cluster feeding soooo much at that point. Breastfeeding is hard at times but I’ve found it to be so rewarding. I’ve taken a very feed on demand / responsive approach and continue to use breastfeeding to soothe my baby. Breastfeeding is about so much more than...

    Breastmilk amount per bottle

    @hurrix Impossible to argue with, and it’s not something that’s up for discussion anymore at this point. So that is some solid advice, thank you

    Breastmilk amount per bottle

    @sherryanne He was given 8oz one time and I lost my mind, was definitely gaslight about the situation. They are very difficult people to have discussions with, they wholeheartedly believe they are right. Hence why I’m here. They help with childcare 1-2x/week, not alone with baby as my husband...

    Breastmilk amount per bottle

    @providenciaet Great links thank you so so much! We’ve tried explaining feeding on demand/ responsive feeding but obviously that hasn’t worked out in our favor. I will absolutely use these links the next time the convo inevitably comes up. My sister in law (her daughter, who is childless) fed...

    Breastmilk amount per bottle

    Looking for research please! My in laws are driving me up a wall. My baby is exclusively breastfed, I pump when I’m at work and nurse on demand when I’m home. When I’m at work (out of the house for 9 hours/ day) baby consumes a 4oz bottle every 2-3.5 hours and averages about 12oz total when I’m...
