my drinking milk 4 hours per day is it normal

1 Answer

A. Yes, it’s normal for a 4-month-old baby to drink milk every 4 hours. At this age, babies typically consume breast milk or formula about 4 to 6 times a day, depending on their individual needs and growth patterns. Things to Keep in Mind: Feeding Cues: Babies will often show hunger cues, such as sucking on their fists, turning their heads towards the breast or bottle, or being fussy. Responding to these cues is important. Amount of Milk: The amount can vary, but most babies consume about 24 to 32 ounces of milk per day. If your baby is gaining weight appropriately and has a good number of wet and dirty diapers, they are likely getting enough milk. Growth Spurts: Be aware that growth spurts may temporarily increase your baby’s appetite. During these times, they may want to feed more frequently. If you have concerns about your baby's feeding habits or growth, it's always a good idea to consult your pediatrician for personalized advice and reassurance.
