  Nicholas takes 5 - 6oz bottles of expressed breast milk.  I also add 2oz of EBM to his oatmeal for breakfast every morning.

  

  My baby is ONE!!

  5oz per bottle. Either 5 oz. breastmilk or 3 oz breastmilk, 2 oz formula mix.

  Roughly every 2.5 hours while I'm at work.

  I voted SS. Jackson HAD been taking 6 oz bottles (FF) but he's been slowing down and sometimes taking 4, 5, or 6. It's really hard to gauge. I assume it's from the solids, so I just make 6 oz and if he doesn't take it, so be it.

  E takes 4oz, whether it's all bm, or bm/formula, or all formula.  But she only gets bottles when I'm gone, or when she's refusing to nurse.

  4 oz of formula but she might be moving up to 5 oz soon. So strange b/c she was taking 5 oz of BM when I was still pumping... thought they were supposed to drink more formula than BM.

  When she was getting bottles at dc they were 4oz. I tried increasing the amount once & it ended up being wasted.
  Everything in my freezer stash is 4oz

  He drinks about 4 bottles a day of formula.  I've noticed it slowing down since we have introduced solids.

  3 6 oz when I'm at work. Bf when I'm home. Depending on how much I pump I have to supplement some ounces everyday.

  I leave 2 4oz Breast Milk bottles for LO while I'm at work, but lately she'll only consume 3-3.5 oz. She is really into her solid foods and not that excited about milk anymore.
