How much formula for a 4 month old that is being weened?

[HannahGraceee]

As the title says

atm her routine is

7:30 - 5-10tsp of baby ceral and 8oz of milk
11:30 - 5-10tsps of baby dinner - 5-10tsps of baby pudding and 4oz of juice
1:30 - 8oz of milk
3:30 8oz of milk
6:00 4oz of milk
7 8oz of milk

is that enough milk?

I don't think solids are supposed to replace any milk feeds before 6 months... but it definitely sounds like she's getting enough milk anyway.

as claire says the solids shouldnt replace the milk but id say she is having enough milk anyway

if she starts taking less than 24ozs a day id re look at tht morning bit 6 hours is a long time during the day to not have milk so the mid morning solids is obv replacing a bottle there if tht makes sense?

 

[HannahGraceee]

Ospy!! i didnt know that .. but surely i cant go back now!!

ffs i feel such a stupid mum

 

[FierceAngel]

of course your not stupid hun your learning like the rest of us

xxx

like i said sounds like she is getting more than enough milk anyway so i wouldnt worry just if the milk intake drops replace some of tht mid morning feed with another bottle iykwim

wen i started luisa on solids she built up to 3 meals a day and was still taking her 4 8ozs bottles but over the last 3 days she has only been having 4 6oz bottles (still enough) but i just changed her evening meal to include a few ozs of milk

like last night she had her veg puree but i only gave her half the anount of veg i isually do and mixed it with baby rice which had 3ozs of formula in it if tht makes sense!

and today i mixed her yogart with an oz of formula xxx

I think someone told me at least 21-28oz of formula... but I'm not 100% sure on that!
