ounces of milk for 14-16 month olds

How many ounces of milk does your LO drink per day? (approximately)

I'm sure there's an "acceptable" range...just want to make sure we're not drowning him in milk.

I offer a sippy of milk at breakfast and dinner. It might work out to about 16-18 ounces, if he drinks all of it.

DS is not a big milk drinker so I offer it to him 3-4 times per day.  It probably works out to 16-20 oz. per day.

wow, my 13 month old drinks a LOT of milk.  to be fair, he is a crappy eater and only on 2% milk, so the doctor said to let him drink whatever he wants, but he is probably closer to 28 ounces.

Before we dropped the morning bottle he was getting about 18-20oz per day. Now, he gets maybe 12oz (which is the minimum his pedi recommended). He still gets his bedtime bottle with 6oz, the rest is from sippy cups throughout the day.

This, but DD gets it at lunch and dinner, juice for breakfast.

Although another little girl our nanny watches (5 months older than DD) lives on nothing but milk and is influencing DD ~ she asks for milk all the time now!

probably only 8 or so...that is why he eats yogurt at least once a day and has cheese and other dairy. He doen't dig milk too much.

I know mine drinks too much, but he is still a good eater - he gets about 24 oz - 30 oz a day!!
