Is there a recommended daily amount of formula for a 5 1/2 month old?
Were weaning from BF to FF and have no clue how much to give him or how often. He was 17lb 13 at his last weigh in if this makes any difference.
TIA
 
I don't really know the answer we're weaning from bf to ff at the moment to, I'm just letting him drink as much as he wants. He seems to take 5oz at a time so I work from that.

He's just over 4 months and around 12lbs.

There is a guide on the box of forumla, try the amount he suggests there. Just follow your LO i don't think they'll take to much.

I found to start with on forumla my Lo hardly took any, think he was gettin used to it
 
there is a guide on the packet but it is just a guide . i demand fed my lo so i would say give him as much as he will drink, try 6 oz or something and see how it goes ... if he never drinks more than 5 for example then dont bother making the extra 1oz , and if he drains the bottle move up to 7 oz ( if he drains that then move to 8 ... and so on )
good luck hun
