4/26/2010 9:08:21 AM My 11 week old son tends to be eating soo much more then what all the books say, even what google says. He is supposed to be eating 4-6oz of formula, but right now he is up to 7oz, sometimes more. What did your 11 week old eat?

My daughter ate more than what the experts said was normal. She is now four and has never been considered overweight. If your son wants 7 oz., then let him have it! I don't think that just because the book recommends something you always have to follow it. Each child is different! |

 | Mary Matanane I have a 10 month old. He just seen his nutritionist today. He is 17 lbs. He is at the 50% percentile. To stay hydrated he needs 28 oz of formula or juice. He needs to be eating 768 calories a day. This includes formula calories which make up almost 600 calories. So the roughly 200 calories can be gain by baby food. You should probably asked to be refered to a nutritionist they can tell you how much he should be eating. That might make you feel better plus know how to balance his feeding.

 | Robin Preston My twin boys can eat. At 11 weeks they were drinking 8 oz bottles with rice cereal. They have never been overweight. They needed the food to grow very fast and are both very tall/long. They are in the 95th percentile for height. Wednesday, October 06, 2010 | |
