Best Answer

My baby is 7 weeks old and I'm breastfeeding primarily but supplimenting formula a little. I feel like I'm feeding him constantly. He's on my breast every 2 hours except at night. he only needs one feeding between the hours of 11pm and 5am. - I think I'm only giving him 2 - 3 oz though every feeding. That makes sense because that adds up to about 20 something oz's a day- which is in the normal range. The normal range is 12 to 24 ounces of breast milk or formula in a 24-hour period, though this amount may be as high as 36 to 40 ounces.
