Frequently Asked Questions

How much formula should I give at each feed?

Newborns take 60-90 mL per feed every 3-4 hours. By 2 months, 120-150 mL per feed is typical. By 6 months, 180-240 mL per feed about 4-5 times per day.

Can I overfeed a formula-fed baby?

Yes, unlike breastfeeding, formula overfeeding is possible. Watch for signs like spitting up large amounts, gassiness, and weight gain faster than the 95th percentile.
