How much milk/formula

I'm wondering how much breast milk/milk/formula your little ones drink a day? My daughter will be 1 in a week and right now she breast feeds when she wakes up around 6am and again around 3pm. I continually offer her formula in a bottle and sippy all day but she won't have any of it and won't drink a bottle or nurse before bed. She eats 3 meals a day and sleeps through the night but it doesn't seem like she's drinking much. Curious what other little ones doing at this age?

Re: How much milk/formula

  • Addy still doesn't eat a lot of solids during the day. little snacks here and there but nothing like meals. She drinks at least 24 ounces a day

  • Currently, DS is taking a 7 oz bottle of formula in the morning and the evening and a 5-6 oz bottle of WCM/soy milk in the middle of the day. He is eating 3 regular meals a day.

    Unless of course he is teething like today and yesterday when he drank an extra bottle this morning and has been refusing solids. Otherwise it's like my first paragraph :)
  • Three, 8-once bottles of formula here.
  • Chloe takes a 8 oz, 2x/day (usually in her sippy!) But we always have the sippy filled with water near where she is playing, and she will drink maybe 2-3 full sippys a day of water :)

  • during the workweek, DS nurses in the morning, has two 4 1/2 or 5 oz bottles of breastmilk at daycare, and then nurses 2 more times in the evening and maybe once more in the middle of the night. we feed him breakfast (usually yogurt and fruit), i pack a lunch of leftovers for him at daycare, and then he has whatever we have for dinner, and more fruit for dessert. some days he has a snack, too. so yeah, i would estimate maybe 20 to 24 oz of BM a day, plus 3 meals of table food. he also drinks water from a straw cup with all his meals.
