I'm new to FF (weaning DD for reasons of biting and needing to get my hormones back on track). It seems that I never get the amount of milk right in her bottle. Today is the first day of formula only, and we have a load of unfinished bottles stacked up by the sink! Some where she's only taken 1oz. On the other hand, twice today she's been given 3oz and has screamed when the bottle was finished. So I made up another 3oz, and she took HALF an oz and then didn't want any more.
DD is 9.5 months and has been used to BF on demand, so I don't know if that makes a difference, but is there any way of knowing in advance how hungry a baby is, so that you can make up the right amount of milk? This is going to cost us a fortune otherwise!
Thank you!
