By 1 to 2 months of age, a breastfed baby will probably nurse 7-9 times a day. Before your milk supply is established, breastfeeding should be on demand (when your baby is hungry), which is generally every 1Â½ to 3 hours. As newborns get older, they'll nurse less often, and may develop a more reliable schedule.
Your primary care provider will let you know how much breast milk or formula your baby should take. Usually a full term healthy newborn takes about 2-3 ounces of breast milk or formula per feeding â about 6-8 feedings per day.Itâs important to understand that itâs normal for newborns to lose some weight in the first week or so of life, but by 2 weeks, your baby should be back to birth weight.Itâs helpful to have your baby weighed once a week, on the same set of scales, for the first 1-2 months to make sure heâs gaining weight properly.ow long should a feeding take? Feedings should take no more than 30 minutes. If your baby takes longer than this, it may mean she is working too hard and may actually be burning up some of the calories needed to gain weight. Try to feed your baby every 3- 4 hours.
