« on: April 04, 2012, 11:12:59 am »
hello

i am about to start trying this BW routine.
I have read that you cluster feed at 5 and 7. or 6 and 8pm.
my 3 and a half week old is on 4oz bottles.
do i give her 4oz at 5pm and 4oz at 7pm?
or do i make up smaller bottles?

thanks

Hello :)

Make up a full 4 oz bottle and let baby take what she will at each feed.

Incidentally, if she is draining a 4 oz bottle regularly, increase to 5 ozs :)  You want her to stop because she is full not because the bottle ran dry :)
