Feeding Pace

Most babies stop eating when they are full. Avoid forcing your baby to finish a bottle if they show signs of satiety, such as turning their head away, closing their mouth, or pushing the bottle away.

Intake Limits

Most pediatricians recommend not exceeding 32 ounces (960 ml) of formula in a 24-hour period. If your baby consistently exceeds this amount, consult your doctor about starting solids or other nutritional adjustments.
