How much at one time?? 5.5 months old

How much does your LO eat at a time? Mine went from eating 3oz at a time every 2-3 hours apart (sometimes formula sometimes breast milk) to eating 4-6oz every 2-3 hours apart in like 2 weeks! Holey Growth Spurt Batman!!!

My DD (7 months in 3 days) takes 5oz every 3 hours.

Has the ratio of formula to breastmilk increased? Smaller amounts of breastmilk are needed than formula, so if he's now drinking less breast milk and more formula then I would expect the size of his bottles to increase.

I know that is supposed to be the case - but he drinks the same amount from a bottle no matter if it is breast milk or formula. Now that he is drinking so much more we really have to combo feed because I can't even come close to making enough for him.
