It seems very young to start dropping feeds? I was told that she should be only on two bottles a day (morning and night) as soon as she's on three meals a day. She's still on 5 bottles with two meals and perfectly happy on her 50th centile. They seem to treat all babies the same when we all know they're so very different.

Since birth they've been telling me to drop feeds due to lo taking to much but I didn't as she is not a "typical" size and every baby feeds different amounts so how can they just look at their chart and say "she should b on-----amount".they will let u know when they want to drop a milk feed Hun.hv told me when on three solid meals 18-20oz is fine for milk feeds.lola has this and about 10oz more lol she has three milk feeds a day as she dropped her feeds herself xx
