Hello! My son is 3 1/2 months old and I am wondering how much should he be eating each day? How many ounces should he be receiving a day or at each feeding? I am concerned because he is small for his age (only in the fifth percentile - whatever that means), but perhaps that is to be expected because he was born six weeks early?
I have been doing a combination of breastfeeding and bottle feeding since he came home from the nicu. How can I measure how much he is receiving in breast milk? Or am I being too scientific? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
