I'm concerned.: Young infants need approximately 150 ml/kg/day of fluids. I'm guessing your baby @ 3 mo. is ~5 kg. That means she needs 750 ml of fluid a day to avoid deydration. Milk is about 80% water, so 500 ml of milk provides about 400 ml of free water. This is just an estimate but it seems she isn't getting enough fluids, not to mention calories. Get with her doctor about this ASAP.
