Number of Feeding for Baby (0-34 months old)

Typical Feeding
Typically, a baby needs to be fed eight to 12 times in a 24-hour period during her first month of life. As she ages, she’ll gradually need to eat less often. She should eat seven or eight times a day during her second and third months. By the time she’s 6 months old, she should need to eat five to six times a day. If you feed her formula, multiply her weight times 2.5 to determine how many ounces of formula she should drink over 24 hours. When your baby is 6 months to 1 year old, she should have four to five feedings of milk or formula daily along with two to three feedings of solid food.
