For 11+ month old's .... how many oz a day?

Please advise the average amount of formula/breastmilk/whole milk your LO consumes in a day - how many bottles or feedings and amount approx at each.

TIA

DS is almost 11 months (8 more days!) and he gets two 8oz bottles a day, one in the morning when he gets up and one at night before he goes to bed.

Reid is 11 months today, Hes getting about 22 Oz a day. I have not idea if that is about right, i just go with what he seems to want.

5 OZ @ 10 am

6-7 OZ at 1:30 PM

5 OZ at 4 (not all the time)

Then 5 OZ at bed time.

Then he is getting a few oz at 4:30 AM like 2 OZ

Is this too much?? Embarrassed

He's averaging 24oz a day in 4, 6oz bottles. He had gone down to 18oz (3 bottles), but he's been waking up between 10 & 11pm wanting a bottle for the last week. He eats so many solids - I can't believe how much he's eating! With snacks and bottles he eats every 90 minutes during the day.

20 oz a day roughly and the pedi wants us at 16oz when we switch to whole milk in a month. Smile

there seems to be a wide range of how much our LO's are taking in at this age ... DS still gets 4 bottles a day, each between 3-5oz. Lately he's been refusing one of them all together. So on a good day he will have 16oz, but most he has about 12. Seems low, but I think I recall reading or being told by the Pedi that 12 oz a day was the bare minimum at this stage ... I know at 12 months we are supposed to drop to 3 bottles and be on whole milk - I don't think either will be an issue. fingers crossed.
