Newborn babies need quite small amounts of formula to start with. By the end of their first week, most will need around 150 to 200ml per kilo of their weight per day until they are six months old. This amount will vary from baby to baby. Although most babies settle into a feeding pattern eventually, they vary in how often they want to feed and how much they want to drink.
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.
