POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 6 m old boy11 months agoA. For a 24-day-old baby who weighs 3 kg and is exclusively on formula milk, the general guideline for feeding is approximately 150-200 ml of formula per kilogram of body weight per day. This means your baby would need about 450-600 ml of formula in total over a 24-hour period. If you are currently giving her 50 to 60 ml per feeding, it's important to ensure that she is fed every 2 to 3 hours. You might want to increase the amount slightly, depending on how frequently you are feeding her. It's also crucial to monitor her hunger cues; if she seems unsatisfied or fussy after feeds, she may need a bit more. However, if you notice signs of overfeeding, such as excessive spit-up or discomfort, you may need to adjust accordingly. Always consult your pediatrician to tailor feeding amounts specifically to your baby's needs and ensure she is gaining weight appropriately, especially since she has some clots. Regular check-ups can help monitor her growth and make any necessary adjustments to her feeding plan.
