Breast Versus Bottle: How much milk should the baby take?

The amount of milk a baby can be varied by the following factors: age, weight, and appetite. On average, newborns will tend to take between 2 to 3 ounces (60-90 milliliters) of formula per feeding, and new moms are recommended to give 8 to 12 times feed/per day.

If breastfed babies, the amount can generally depend upon how frequent the feed the baby requires but take smaller amounts at each feeding or vice versa. According to the baby guide, it's significant to perceive the baby's hunger signs and feed on demand. It is suggested to consult a pediatrician for personalized advice on feeding amounts for your baby.
