Feeding Amounts: Feeding amounts will vary some based on the weight of your baby. Generally feeding amounts range from 3-4 oz every 3-4 hours. Visit the site healthychildren.org to help with guidelines. Frequent check ups with growth measurements help to determine good nutrition and growth at this age. Assessing wet diapers also helps. All the best.
