Girls who are only formula feeding currently...

How many oz's a day to you give to dc and how old are they.

My boys are big and they take about 35-40 oz's a day. The ped didn't have an issue with that, but it seems like a lot compared to others here. They are almost 5 months.

At 5 months, DD was taking about the same, our ped said it was fine too.

She wasnt on any solids til after 6 month mark.

My DD is wayy different than others here too, i try not to compare cause every baby is different and unique

At five months, Ava was taking 27oz. a day, but she was having cereal two times per day, plus fruits and veggies. Now, at 7.5 months, she takes 16oz. a day, eats three meals a day.

Yup i started them on cereal, they take about 3-4 spoonfuls before they get bored with it and then spit it out. So they have not started to take less from the bottles of yet. I am going to start them on veggies next week to see what happens.

DS at 5 months was taking in about 40 oz then at 6 mo he started solids and seems to be taking in a little less- I don't force it b/c I guess he is full? (The Dr said he is fine and he must be doing well he is 21lbs at 6mo 3 weeks!)Chat Icon
