A. hi parent your kids 3 months old the quantity of formula feeding depends upon the babies demand . it also depends upon the weight of a baby, roughly the baby may toleratee around 60-100 ml / feed for a baby of 5 kg, but do not force the feed to the baby...

A. Choosing whether to breastfeed or formula-feed is a major decision for any new parent. Unlike breastfeeding, when you opt for a formula it can be confusing to try to work out just how much to give the baby every day. The answer lies in the baby’s age, weight and whether you’re feeding only formula or giving it as a supplement alongside breast milk or solids. Here are a few things to know before making up your mind on how much formula to give a baby.https://parenting.firstcry.com/articles/formula-milk-for-babies-how-much-does-your-baby-need/
