We are FF here too, and the guide I was given by the hossy is:
150 x bubs weight e.g 5kg = 750...so 750mls is a guide for the 24hrs, then you just divide it by the number of feeds (e.g 750ml divided by 8 feeds= 95ml per feed) divide by less if she has less feeds.
When they hit 3 months, you drop it down to 120 x bubs weight. but like anything to do with lil bubs, its just a guide, as they are all different in their feeding patterns/appetites. I do think the FF tin guides are very generic, my bub never drank what is printed on the side, she was drinking quite a bit over the guide at one stage (before the reflux monster came)
MCHN's can be so vague & unhelpful sometimes
BTW its sounds as though you are an awesome mummy, doing a great job!
