Formula Milk Quantity Calculator
Hi, my new born baby is 8 weeks old and completely formula fed. What should be the right amount of milk he should be given in 24 hrs? How should we calculate it? For example, if I mix 3 scoops formula in 90 ml of water, it makes somewhere 100-110 ml of milk. So what amount is the baby drinking, 90 ml or 100-110 ml?

Take it as the amount of prepared formula (minus the bubbles!). In this case 100ml or 105ml
