It’s normal for a 2-week-old baby to be hungry and want to feed frequently. Newborns need to eat often to grow and develop, as they have small stomachs and can’t store a lot of food at once. Breastmilk or formula provides your baby with all the nutrients they need. Feeding on demand helps make sure your baby is getting enough to eat, and helps your body produce enough milk to meet your baby’s needs.

Is my 2 week old eating too much?

It is generally recommended that newborns eat 2-3 ounces (56-84 milliliters) of formula or breastmilk every 2-3 hours. However, it is important to note that each baby is different, and some babies may feed more or less than others. If you are concerned that your baby is eating too much, it is best to talk to your pediatrician for advice.

Why is my 2 week old eating every 2 hours?

It is normal for a two-week-old baby to eat every two hours. At this age, babies are still adjusting to the world outside the womb and they need to eat often to help them grow and gain weight. Feeding your baby every two to three hours will help ensure that they are getting enough nutrition to support their development. Additionally, frequent feedings can help prevent your baby from becoming overly hungry and crying for long periods of time.
