How much in bedtime bottle at 6 mos?

RayRay007

DD takes 5-6 oz. of BM in her bedtime bottle if she gets a bottle. A few days ago I started supplementing her bedtime nursing with 2-3 oz. of formula. Tonight DH put DD to bed and gave her 6 oz. of formula. She threw up quite a bit of it minutes later. I seem to remember my friend's ff baby taking 8 oz at night since he was younger than DD is now. How much does your LO get?

this. Most bottles we do 6oz. Sometimes he falls asleep eating or stops after about 4 oz.

Just last week I started increasing her bedtime bottle to 7 oz.  A majority of the time, she drinks it all.  DD is ff.

6 ozs. He finishes it all 95% of the time.

Ok so it sounds like 6oz or less is pretty normal. Thanks ladies!

I would think the amount they take might be different in a bf baby vs Completely ff baby.

BF mostly, FF 2x a day (once at daycare, and once over night). She usually takes 4.5-5oz bottles
