You can only control how often you offer the milk/formula, but a baby that young, in my opinion, shouldn't be made to wait, but should be fed just as soon as he/she shows interest. In the case of my 2nd baby, her reason for quitting early was reflux. Even if it wasn't coming back up, she was experiencing the discomfort, so she didn't like to have a full belly.

meecob - 867 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) Unlike adults, babies stop eating when they are full :) I'd say don't stress about it...my daughter never ate or eats more than four oz at a time, she's 8 months old. I know each babe is different, but I'm positive that if babe was hungry s/he would let you know ;o) Take care.
