The research tells us that exclusively breastfed babies take in an average of 25 oz (750 mL) per day between the ages of 1 month and 6 months. Different babies take in different amounts of milk; a typical range of milk intakes is 19-30 oz per day (570-900 mL per day). We can use this information to estimate the average amount of milk baby will need at a feeding: 1  Estimate the number of times that baby nurses per day (24 hours).
Most babies are satisfied with 3 to 4 ounces (90â120 ml) per feeding during the first month and increase that amount by 1 ounce (30 ml) per month until they reach a maximum of about 7 to 8 ounces (210â240 ml). If your baby consistently seems to want more or less than this, discuss it with your pediatrician.uring the first month, if your baby sleeps longer than four to five hours and starts missing feedings, wake her up and offer a bottle. By the end of her first month, sheâll be up to at least 4 ounces (120 ml) per feeding, with a fairly predictable schedule of feedings about every four hours.
