Overview

Calculate the recommended daily feeding amount (breast milk or formula) based on your baby's age and weight. References include the WHO and Korean Pediatric Society guidelines. Feeding intervals and per-session volumes are also provided. Individual needs vary, so consult your pediatrician.

Formula

General infant feeding guidelines:
- Newborn (0–1 month): Weight (kg) x 150 mL/day, every 3 hours, 60–90 mL per feed
- 1–3 months: Weight (kg) x 150 mL/day, every 3–4 hours, 90–120 mL per feed
- 3–6 months: Weight (kg) x 120–150 mL/day, every 4 hours, 120–180 mL per feed
- 6+ months: Begin complementary foods, gradual reduction in milk volume

* For breastfeeding, responsive (on-demand) feeding is recommended.

Tips

• ✔For breastfeeding, responsive (on-demand) feeding is best.
• ✔Newborns have small stomachs (about 5–20 mL capacity) and need frequent small feedings.
• ✔Adequate feeding can be confirmed by urine frequency (6–8+ wet diapers/day) and steady weight gain.
• ✔Always follow the manufacturer's instructions for formula dilution. Making it more concentrated is dangerous.
• ✔This calculator is a reference guide; follow your pediatrician's advice for your baby's individual needs.
