Formula
Daily Need ≈ 150 mL/kg (range 120-180 mL/kg) | Per Feeding = Daily Total / Number of Feedings
Breastfed babies typically need about 150 mL (5 oz) per kg of body weight daily during months 1-6. This stabilizes around 750-900 mL (25-30 oz) per day. Per feeding = daily total divided by number of feedings.
