A member asked:

How many ml of breast milk will a baby 12days old drink?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Enough: Mom will produce enougjh the average intake a newborn has is 15-40 ml a feed but it can vary depending on the infant and moms supply. Some babies will take 2-3 oz a feed by 12 days old...Others 1-2 oz. As long as baby is gaining weight and satisfied, then he/she is getting enough.
