I do know that the most ds ever got in supplements was 15-18 ounces, and once i tried to up my supply with a hospital pump it was about 4 ounces of breastmilk expressed and the rest formula.
I put in ds's weight for 4 months along with about how much i thought i nursed him and was surprised that it said i was producing about 20 ounces of breastmilk. Do these numbers seem accurate? FWIW at that age ds was not taking solids and was 75% percentile in weight/95% height. I always thought that i had very little breastmilk with him, think maybe 10 ounces or so, but with his growth and the supplement amounts it seems as though he may have been getting more than i realized??
Do you all think the calculator is accurate?
TIA
I had always thought i made about 50% for ds, but with the calculator it seems more like 60-75% what do you all think?
