quick question for exclusive pumpers

[tash11]

How much does/did your baby eat a day when they were 4-5months old?


or if anyone has a chart showing aprox how much a day a bf baby eats that would be great too.

thanks

Here's a milk calculator:

My darling averages between 19-23 ounces per day. I used to worry about her (that she was undereating horribly or something), but now I think she is just fine.

I EP and at 4-5 months old dd ate between 28-32 oz a day. She is now 8 months and eats 32-34 oz a day. (very small amounts of solids also)

My 4 month old is about 15 pounds and our nutritionist through EI said her goal is about 600-700 calories...figuring about 20 cal/oz --30-35oz. Another formula is the 2.5oz per pound of weight. For hydration, I've read at least 1.5oz per pound of weight.
