Ava stopped at 1 oz. For her last two
bottles to sleep. We give her 3 oz., but
she stopped at 1 and then she goes into a
deep sleep. It bothers me that she's not
eating all of it.
What do? Just let her?

When she's ready to stop, she'll stop. Ya
know?
She'll definately let ya know when she's
ready for the rest! :d
it's normal for them not to eat what you
think they should. Sometimes to a baba,
sleep is more important!!!
My friends son did that but he would eat
1oz every hour all night long rather then
the 3-4oz so it made for long nights lol
hopefully that doesnt happen withyou

Don't worry (easier said than done, I
know). Babies eat when they are hungry.
Some babies/children have patterns to
their eating. Others seem to be random.
For instance, my son was breast fed every
2 hours and had to nurse for 45 minutes.
My daughter was totally different. She
was a quick nurser and ate whenever she
saw fit. There was no 'schedule' and no
set amount of time in between.
The only cause for alarm would be if your
daughter lost weight - which doesn't seem
to be the case.
Relax. You are doing fine

In the beginning your baby will eat what
she wants when she wants....For the first
few weeks I would let her do what she
wants for the time being. And then start
getting her on a schedule. That is what
I did.
