When I was Karitane training
we had three different routines
some were on 6am, 10am, 2pm, 6pm and 10pm they were called the even feeds
the odds were 4am,8am,12midday, 4pm and 12middnight
the sargood ward had older babies which used to be on a 7am, 11am, 3pm and 7pm and 11pm if they needed it.
We used to have three different babies to care for sometimes one in the Sargood room and then maybe a baby on even times and one sometimes on the even schedule. always very busy. and the shifts were nurses on morning shift, afternoon shift and then three nurses on night shift]]> Sat, 09 Feb 2008 16:48:28 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=14314&PID=298036&title=how-many-bottles-a-day#298036 <![CDATA[How many bottles a day? : Sophie has started missing out...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=14314&PID=297970&title=how-many-bottles-a-day#297970 Author: nicolaann

Sophie has started missing out her 10pm feed too Lisha. She has her last about 7-8pm. She drinks 200ml at a time, usually 4-5 times a day. She still sleeps through the night fine, so I'm not worried she is missing her late feed.]]> Sat, 09 Feb 2008 14:11:30 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=14314&PID=297970&title=how-many-bottles-a-day#297970 <![CDATA[How many bottles a day? : Gina was having 6-7 bottles at...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=14314&PID=297923&title=how-many-bottles-a-day#297923 Author: yummymummy

Gina was having 6-7 bottles at that stage and drinking between 100-150ml, mostly around the 140ml mark. I've kept a schedule of all her feeds and times etc and they seem evenly spaced during a 24 hour period with around 3-4 hours between each feed.]]> Sat, 09 Feb 2008 12:38:26 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=14314&PID=297923&title=how-many-bottles-a-day#297923 <![CDATA[How many bottles a day? : When I first swapped Spencer onto...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=14314&PID=297529&title=how-many-bottles-a-day#297529 Author: cuppatea

When I first swapped Spencer onto formula at 3 months he would have 7-8 feeds in a 24hour period of about 120ml and then he swapped to having 5 feeds a day of 180ml (but that was after swapping to specialist formula and with his constipation sorted).
I suppose it would depend on how much she has at each feed as well as how often? Also she is quite big so I would expect her to have more than Spencer did as he was only 6lb 2 at birth (although that might be false logic)]]> Fri, 08 Feb 2008 19:23:41 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=14314&PID=297529&title=how-many-bottles-a-day#297529 <![CDATA[How many bottles a day? : Hi We feed Ollie as follows (aprox...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=14314&PID=297172&title=how-many-bottles-a-day#297172 Author: MummyFreckle

Hi

We feed Ollie as follows (aprox times):

Wake up #1 - 5.30am ish, Wake Up #2 9am ish

11am, 1pm, 3.30pm, 6pm ish, then bedtime bottle between 7.30-8pm.

I guess I feed him 7-8 times a day depending on how hungry he is, he gets 150ml bottles, but sometimes if he is really grizzly I will make up 100mls as a "snack".

Hope this helps.....we have pretty much let him set the timeframes for when he wants feeding, and it seems to stretch out longer between feeds some days and on others he seems hungry all day!!

I am so confused!

Not sure how many bottles a day Zoe should be having now, she is 2.5 months old, and all of a sudden doesn't want her 10.30ish bottle, has had some playtime then was yawning so have put her back in bed. Anyone else had this? Her last feed was about 7ish.
