How much/often did your 4 month old baby take his/her formula?

Question

My baby is formula fed and was wondering how much she should eat per feeding and how many times per day. She was four months on 01-09.

Answer 1

My son just turned 4 months and he's eating 8-9oz every 4 hours, I also add about a teaspoon of cereal to his bottles. We are in the process of indroducing veggies at this point too. About twice a day in between feedings. He's also been sleeping through the night since 2mo old. So no feedings at night. Keep in mind every baby is different.....

Answer 2

My son, now 12 years old, was a piggy at that age! He took an 8 ounce bottle every two hours 24/7. Plus he ate cereal and teething cookies.

I think a more typical feeding schedule for that age is a 6-8 ounce bottle every four hours throughout the day, and perhaps one feeding in the middle of the night, plus cereal once or twice a day.

Answer 3

My baby will be 5 months on thursday and she has been eating 6-6oz bottles and 4tbls of cereal for breakfast and lunch. She eats every 3 to 4 hours except at night.
