Babies: 9 - 12 Months

How many ounces BM/formula a day (9 mo)?

For those that bottle feed, how many ounces a day do you give LO? ?I've EBF'ed until now but I am switching to formula since my milk supply has decreased due to being pregnant again. ?I'm not sure how much he should be getting, especially since I still try to BF when I can but I often feel like I have very little milk for him. ?He doesn't seem to drink much from a bottle so I'm kind of concerned. Any advice would be appreciated!

  • He's been weird lately, he won't finish his bottles but..... he technically gets four 6oz bottles a day plus about 2.5 oz with both his solid meals. So total is about 29ish oz a day.

  • DD takes 4 bottles for a total of about 20-24 oz per day.
  • 24 almost everyday, but if she needs it she occasionally gets an extra bottle of 4 oz.  If we're home with her she usually does 3 8oz. bottles, and on days she goes to daycare she eats more often but takes less at each (4 6oz. bottles).
