Generally, Katie (3mos1wk) takes 11oz breastmilk, and 9-16 oz formula a day. (I didn't produce enough, and once she got the bottle, she wouldn't nurse, so I pump..that's how I know what she gets each day). When she goes through a growth spurt, she usually ups the total to about 30-35oz. She's been this way since birth.
Generally, babies are very good at regulating their nutritional needs. The "guideline" is somewhere around 2-3oz per pound of your baby's weight, but, that's only a guideline. If your baby is producing enough wet diapers, is gaining according to guidelines, and seems happy and healthy, however much s/he is getting is probably about right.

my baby is only 10 days old and he eats 3 ounces. -Yeah, he eats a lot. and that is every 3hours. So it all depends on your child. Every child is different. Just pay attention to your baby and give him a bottle with 4ounces in it, and see how much he eats, that will tell you
