For a 1-month-old baby, the typical feeding amount and frequency are as follows:
- Feed about 3 to 4 ounces (90 to 120 milliliters) of breast milk or formula per feeding.
- Expect around 8 to 10 feedings per day.
- This means your baby will usually eat every 2 to 3 hours, as newborns tend to feed frequently to meet their nutritional needs
It's important to feed your baby on demand, watching for hunger cues such as restlessness or sucking motions, rather than strictly adhering to a schedule or exact amounts. Each baby's appetite can vary based on weight, growth, and individual needs
. If you are formula feeding, the total daily intake for a 1-month-old typically ranges around 24 to 36 ounces (about 700 to 1050 milliliters) spread over the day, divided into multiple feedings
. Always consult your pediatrician for personalized advice, especially if you have concerns about your baby's feeding or growth.
