Milk intake
Hi doctor,
My baby is 2 months old. He keeps demanding for the feed. I give him breastmilk plus top up formula milk.
His daily intake is now around 500ml in 24 hrs.
Is it normal?

His total required intake fr dis age should be 700 to1000 ml per day…which includes BF plus top feed..If he is gaining 30 to 35 g wt /day and fills 6 to 8 daipers den his milk intake is adequate..
