Re: formula at 6 months

If I remember correctly from my older kids, appx 24 oz. 4 bottles of 6 oz each that eventually went down to 18 oz. after a year.

If I remember correctly - same here. I think at my 5/6 month visit the dr told me that is what the intake should be. If they fall under 24 give more formula and less solids and if over 32 give less formula and less solids. At this age they said formula should still be primary source of nutrition.

Yup! This is exactly what out Ped said. We had to give up one feeding of rice (AM) as she was not drinking enough formula.
