LO is almost 11 but at that time she was drinking like 24 oz give or take a day yet.
The Pedi told me that she was only to have between 16-18oz. and I freaked for a bit. Then I realized she just wasn't quite ready for that yet and I stopped stressing.
Now at 11 months we're down to about 18ish. Somedays more or less. We're working on dropping a few bottles at the moment (She still takes like 5 a day!)
My pedi never gives me any guidance on feedings and solids/versus bottles. Lo eats 3 solid "meals" a day and takes 4 bottles a day for a total of 24 oz. She could prob drop to 3 bottles. I dont want to deprive her/ overfeed her so just curious what the other babies are doing.
He gets 4 bottles a day. On average he eats approx. 27oz., but depending on the day he can eat as little as 16oz. if he's teething badly or really distracted.
Major stresser for me when it comes to our LO, I always think he's not eating/drinking enough but he get 3-4, 8oz bottles a day, sometimes he doesnt drink the whole thing so on average I'd say he gets between 18-32oz a day, depending if he takes all of the bottles which is rare He is also eating fruit and cereal for breakfast, a yogurt for snack, a stage 3 for lunch or finger foods, a fruit or veggie for snack and then dinner veggie and meat or whatever we're having for dinner, thoguth he has a really hard time with gagging and then throwing up so mostly we're sticking to roughly pureed foods.
DD takes four 6 oz bottles a day, so about 24. She doesn't always finish her bottles, but would only leave about an oz. She has 3 meals of purees, and yo-baby in the afternoon for a snack.

It's been about 2 weeks but I think we have some type of schedule now.
total of 24ish oz of formula
three 8 oz bottles (6:30ish, 2ish, and 7ish)
8:30-breakfast, oatmeal and fruit(4oz)
12 noon-lunch, yogurt and fruit (4oz)
4pm: snack (fruit or cheese or something small)
6:30: dinner, veggie and fruit and a protein (4 oz)
Too much!! LOL
He drinks about 48oz a day? Depending on how he is that day he might either drink 6 or 8oz a night... But he is drinking around that much.

I hope this helps.
