normal milk intake for 6month old?

[Connah'sMommy]

Im not worried as such,just curious. Connah is on 3 meals a day and on 24oz formula a day.

What was everyone else's LO's intake at this age?

thanks x

luca is a couple weeks older than connah but he takes 3 meals a day and around 24 ounces a day of formula (sometimes a little less sometimes a little more) we also have to add 3 tablespoons of rice cereal to each 4 ounce botttle because of his reflux

Ruby is on 3 meals and 24oz now at nearly 9m.

At 6m she was on about 36oz and no solids, but we'd just started BLW and she didn't eat til 7m.

my little one is on 6 oz bottles 4 to 5 times a day it doesnt really matter if he wants it give it to him as he woulnt tke it unless he wanted it ny lil girl was on 9 oz bottles 6 times a day and 3 times a nights when she was 5 months and started going down once i started giving her solids so if he wants it dont worry to much he will eventually cut himself down to a smaller proportion as he gets bigger and wants more solids than fluids it just takes time and patience but if not then it just means he has a big appatiate and nothing to worry about

Thanks,im not worried at all,just curious as to what other LO's were like. He has cut them down a little already and i think thats fine

Mia is 7 months, and is on 3 or 4 meals a day and has about 20oz of milk a day sometimes it's a struggle to get her to even have that much milk. She's been pretty much the same since 6 months with the milk, but will now take a bit more food than she did then.
