Hi

My son is 7 weeks old, the Hv said he should only be hving 6oz every 4hours.. but he is having 7 sometimes 8 ... & then sometimes still screamiing for more after?
The Hv said to just leave him in his pram cryin for 5 mins to see if he settles himself, but i cant do leave him screaming so it only last a min or so..

She asked me how much lo takes at each feed, I said we make up 7oz and she will sometimes drink5, 6 or the full 7oz and she said try and just let her drink 50z - WTF?!! So if lo is screaming Ive got to say to myself 'the HV told you you cant have the rest - sorry your still hungry' I dont think so!!
I would ignore you HV - I have been told, you cannot overfeed a baby, if they have too much they will sick it back up - which is true.
Dont worry keep doing what your doing xx
