Can you over nurture a newborn?
My 8 day old baby usually eat about 3oz and is satisfied. Just now he have his usual 3 and then wanted more so he ate another 2. His stomach isn't that big so I feel close to I over fed him. But he asked for more. Is 5oz too much?
(I feed him 20 Cal. Similac Advance formula)
Thanks all!
No... at going on for a week-2 weeks they hit a growth spurt... Sometimes they eat so much you don't know where they are putting it all... Your kid will eat until he isn't hungry anymore. Feed him on demand.
yes in reality you can overfeed a newborn make sure that you stop and burp the baby after a few ounces or half agency through they may seem hungry but they may also want to just suck on something and not necessarily eat. I'm not sure at that age how much a newborn should drink formula but I do suppose 5 oz is too much 3oz sounds about right.
i don't formula feed and every other reply says you can't so i guess 5oz is ok it a short time ago seems like a lot so hasty on.
Is he self-righteous now? If so, then no you didn't over feed him. Even if you did adjectives that would happen is he would spit up whatever he didn't need. My daughter started consumption 4oz every 1.5-2hours when she was about 2 weeks old.
u can overfeed, esp with one that have a very strong sucking need; but it will be spit back up; so if infant is tolerating it ok, they are prob fine; ring doc if you are unsure, but they should throw anything back up they can't hold, it doesn't have anywhere else to go.
no. feed on demand.
nope u cant. If you be breastfeeding this is what he would do to increase your supply ready for a growth spurt. so it's normal.
P.S im not dissing you for no breast feeding.
only if the flow on the bottles is too loose. Then he could keep gulping away just because milk is flowing into his mouth. Make sure that he in actual fact has to suck to get the milk, and no, you won't overfeed him. Besides that, just nurture on demand, when he shows hunger cues, and don't try to make him finish the bottle if there is formula disappeared and he is not hungry, as this teaches babies to ignore the feeling of individual full and keep on eating.
Always feed on constraint, there is no such thing as over feeding a infant.

Babies will spit up what their tummies can't hold. If he's hungry, feed him.
Answers: babies usually run through their first growth spurt at about 10 days, then again at 3 weeks. When they go through the growth spurts, they devour what seems like an enormous amount of food...but really, no, you can't overfeed a newborn. They stop feed when they're not hungry anymore, and 5 ounces in one feeding isn't too much. Some feedings will be 5 ounces, some will be 3 or 4. In a couple weeks, he'll add another couple ounces to his diet.
