I have out my older version (Second Edition)of Riordan and Auerbach here
on my lap. It says that if one converts the baby's weight in pounds to
total ounces, and divides that number by 6, the answer will be the amount
of milk the baby neds in 24 hours to secure a 4-6 ounce gain in weight per
week.
Does that help?
