Don't be pressured into feeding too early, Breast milk is best for them, and if they are doing well on just breast milk they are fine. Don't worry about measurements too much. Feeding is important if they are not thriving on only milk. As long as they are gaining and growing and have energy I WOULD NOT WORRY. The one down side with only breast milk is they may be low on iron ( it depends on what your nutrition is like. With all of our kids they were breast fed of at least a year. Food was introduced earlier (9 months ?? ) but it was just to play with and get used to. And the cereal was first made with breast milk.
