how many ounces does your 13 month old get a day?

She is getting the same amount now at 15 months as she was at 13 months.

About 20 oz.

yikes! it looks like I may need to up DS' milk intake, he usually only drinks about three 6 oz bottles a day.

She is getting the same amount now as she was then, which is 15-20 oz.  Our pedi said no more than 20 oz so that she will get more calories from food.

No, that sounds about right.  Our pedi rec. between 16-20 oz.

We're lowering it to 24 (from 30) b/c he's not eating enough solids.. he's about 26 now.  I actually put a stage 1 nipple for one of his mid-day feedings so it last longer. it worked.  He automatically cut his milk intake by 4 oz. (not sure if that's the way to do it, but it worked for us)

DS doesn't drink milk now since he's allergic.  I partly blame his allergy on giving him too much milk when it was introduced at 13 months. Too allergist/ENTs told me that was likely the cause of his allergy.  I would be careful not to give too much.  Americans consume an excessive amount of milk and its not necessary. I would ask your pedi and do your research on cows milk before pumping your kid with tons of it.
