I just had a baby friday, so he is 5 days old, and i was wondering how much he should be eating? he was 6 lbs 5 oz if that makes a difference
 
whatever feels right to you and the baby should probably be great. good luck. and let sasha know that she is the pretentious bitc* because she got my answer deleted.

good luck! and dont listen to as*'s
 
he should eat as much as he wants, when he wants until he is full. babies dont come with a manual and they shouldnt eat a specific amount at specific times, theyre all different jsut tend to your babys needs and follow babes cues. my daughter (born 7lb 8ounces) had 2 ounces every 2-3 hours but i know a baby who had 4-5 ounces every 3-4 hours from birth like double what my daughter had, hes always been big though from birth and now is big at a year old aswell x
