Babies: 9 - 12 Months

At what age do babies typically drop to 3 bottles and then 2 bottles?

DD takes 4 bottles and 3 solid meals. I just added the 3rd meal last week. At what age do they start to drop bottles?

  • I think they're still supposed to get most of their nutrition from milk until they're a year old.

  • I think T is trying to drop a bottle, so she would be at four a day, plus two or three solid meals.  My pedi said that she may be down to 16 oz a day by nine months and he's not worried.  I think every baby is different - have you spoken with your pedi?
  • DD only takes 3 bottles a day (each 8 oz) and 2 solid meals a day (sometimes 3, as we are gradually making that shift). One day she only took 2 bottles, but I think she wasn't feeling well that day... on avg. it's 3 bottles.
  • dd is definitely dropping. she is nursing or bottle 5 times a day and solids 2-3 times a day. last week she went from bottle/nurse every 2-3 hrs to every 4 hours on the dot.
