Per my pediatrician yesterday they eat 2-3 oz of milk. I breastfeed and bottle feed. My baby is 6 days old

A couple of ounces. I had to get mine checked. You will produce more if it’s not pumped but I know this isn’t an option for everyone. Don’t compare it to formula as it’s very dense with little waste.

Around 2 to 3 oz at a time

Baby shouldn’t ever exceed a max of 3-4 ounces, even as they get older as long as you’re pace feeding. But at less than a week old, I’d expect no more than 2 MAYBE 3oz per feed. Their bellies aren’t very big.
