My 12 week old little girl not feeding as much as she should?
My girl is 12 weeks old, she’s on Kendamil organic (normal Kendamil atm due to shortage) but she should in theory be drinking around 5oz a time now but we’re still stuck on 3-4, sometimes the occasional 5oz. I also log all her feeds and over a 24 hour period she drinks between 20-24oz which I don’t think is enough? Shes 10.5lb.
Is there any advice or suggestions to help her feed more or does this sound ok?

This sounds normal to me. 24oz over 24hrs is the minimum amount of formula. Is she still following her growth pattern? They are all so different my little girl does the same. Sometimes 3.5 and other times 6oz. She’s on Kendamil too she weighs 11.5lb. If you’re worried speak with your HV or gp. Does she still drink every 3-4hourly. They’ll take what they want and she’ll let you know if she wants more. Xx
She’s fine 🩷🩷 every baby is different. I’d ask the pediatrician but the guidelines are just guidelines. As long as she’s fed and producing wet and poopy diapers regularly is what I’ve been told.

my boy will be 12 weeks this Thursday and is only drinking 4oz.. I spoke to his pediatrician and he said that’s perfectly normal!
