How much milk is your 13 month old drinking?

Filly78

My son is 13 months old and is still drinking 4-5 bottles per day with 6 oz of half breast milk and half WCM.  At his 12 month well check his pedi said he should start drinking less milk and will just back off himself.  He doesn't seem to be backing off at all...  Is he drinking too much?  How much are your babies still drinking?

Between 12-18oz a day.

DS gets 18 oz right now - 2 oz formula combined with 4 oz WCM, three times a day.  We're only still using formula to finish off our last container.  When we're fully on WCM - probably next week - I plan to start reducing to between 12-16 oz.  I'm aiming for closer to 12 since he also gets a container for whole milk yogurt everyday also.

About 911 oz.

DD is drinking 20oz of 2%CM (and 2oz breast milk -we are weaning) each day.

My DS was drinking 3-4 bottles of 6 oz each per day at that age. I reduced them to 5 oz, then took the middle-of-the-day one away. Just this week, I started giving him the first bottle in a sippy instead, so one bottle at night. He just gets a total of 10-12 oz, but at 13 months, was probably at about 18 oz.

I am right there with you. My son still takes 25 to 30 ounces of day on average. He's not much of a solids eater so I have been taking a little bit out of each bottle to see if that encourages eating solid food as well as decreasing the amount of milk he is taking. He gets a mix of breast milk and almond milk FWIW. Generally, he will just screech for the milk if I try to give him food and he doesn't want solid food though.

DS doesn't drink milk.  At all.  I weaned him at 11 months and he refused milk of any variety.  I tried cows, goats, soy, almond, rice, etc.  I even tried chocolate milk just to try and get him drinking it and he refuses it.  I spoke with my doctor and she was not concerned so long as he was getting dairy elsewhere, so he eats a lot of yogurt and cheese.

DD has been drinking 12-16 oz of WCM  per day since about 12 months. She gets a milk sippy at snack and another one at dinner. She would probably drink twice as much if it was offered, but she gets water at breakfast, lunch and throughout the day.

But...she is big on solids. Breakfast today was an orange, a piece of toast and a scrambled egg.

I am going to guess that he is getting about 24oz of BM a day. He gets 2 6oz bottles at DC and he nurses 2x a day. I am going to drop one 6oz bottle next week though.

We just made the transition from BM to WCM. Now she drinks about 3 7oz. Sippy cups a day. One with each meal. The rest of the day she has a water cup available.
