Drinking more than 8oz
« on: May 02, 2006, 00:56:26 am »
Any bottles out there that hold more than 8 oz?  For the last few days my DD started drinking almost 10oz at each meal.  She is on the 4 hour routine now and is 3.5 months old.  Do they usually drink this much?

sounds like a growth spurt. you could fill the big bottle (8-9oz) and then have a smaller bottle at the ready to top up with if you can't find bigger bottles. probably not worth spendiog the money on new bottles since it might be short lived...

DD1 was a good feeder & was like this when she was ready for solids - a few weeks 'early'.  I used to make up afew oz in new baby bottle to have in the fridge - just in case as a top up.
