(Younger babies with smaller tummies take less milk.) Breastfed babiesâ milk intake doesnât increase from months 1 to 6 because their growth rate slows.4 As growth slows, breastfed babies continue to get bigger and heavier on about the same daily milk intake, averaging about 25 ounces (750 mL) per 24 hours.
How many ounces should he get? A: It's tough to judge exactly how many ounces of breast milk your baby consumes when he's nursing, but for the first month or so, babies usually drink about 2 ounces per feeding. However, this varies from baby to baby (larger babies tend to eat more, for example) and even from feeding to feeding. You can start with 2 ounces, and if your baby devours it and seems eager for more, offer another ounce. Don't worry about overstuffing your baby -- he'll stop when he's full.
