Infant Liquid Intake
That depends on your baby's age and how you are feeding him/her. If you are nursing, there is no right amount, as long as your baby is having 6-8 wet diapers a day and seems to be gaining weight well. If you are formula feeding, the baby can take anywhere from 2-8 ounces at a feeding, and feed every 2-4 hours, but this depends on age. I have an eight-month old who takes 32 ounces a day, 8 ounces every four hours. I would ask your baby's doctor if you are concerned.
