I have a good friend whom is breastfeeding her 8 week old baby. She also pumps and leaves a bottle of breastmilk for me to feed her, when she is away.When I keep the baby for the day, she drinks 11 ounces of breastmilk every 3 hours. She also does this if her dad feeds her a bottle. I know that the milk may flow faster from the bottle, but she isnt bothered by this. She keeps up, and lets go long enough to burp every 3 ounces. She is very content. She isnt gassy or fussy at all. So, this is okay, right? Also, she was drinking 4 oz. from a bottle at 1 week, and has basically added an ounce each week from there.
