New to formula - baby drinking ALOT more formula than EBM

[starangelk]

*bump* Did anyone else experience this?

I don't think it is abnormal for her to want that much milk. Babies around that age need about 900mls of milk so what she's having sounds about right. She was probably always drinking that much when she was BFing but naturally you couldn't *see* how much.

I work fulltime so I was only BFing her morning and night and we knew how much she was drinking during the day but maybe you are right Trillian. Thanks everyone for your replies

Just trying to look outside the box here...

Babies tend to want to drink, drink and drink when they have a belly ache (from all the formula?)..

DD was on s26 GOLD at the age and was having 4-5 bottles of 250mls and eating pretty much the same solids as your DD.

or, she just might be a hungry bub and is going through a growth spurt.

And no, I don't think it is the wrong formula for her and trust me, after trying every formula under the sun... it makes no difference.
