How many ounces a days does your 7 month old drink?

Re: How many ounces a days does your 7 month old drink?

Well Jacen is 6 months and 1 week. But he drinks about 6 bottles within a 24 hour period with 5 ounces in each. So 30 ounces total. We also give him solids twice a day.

Tyler is drinking five 7 ounce bottles during the day and one 5 oz bottle in the middle of the night. So that is 40 oz. I am looking to get rid of the middle of the night one but lately he has been waking two times at night but I refuse to give him two bottles during the night.

4 bottles, 5-6 ounces each feeding.
Plus cereal and fruit AM and PM and yogurt and veggie for lunch.

DD is 7.5 months.

She nurses AM and PM. She also gets 16oz of FM/BM a day. The total probably is around 24-28oz. Depending on her mood, sometimes she'll take another 4 oz.

She also has 2 tbls oatmeal and a fruit or veggie 2x a day.

ETA- we will probably start adding a veggie or fruit for lunch soon.

Jack is 7 month's and is all over the charts.

He always takes 7 oz when he wakes up, typically around 6am. That's the only bottle I can guarantee

At 9 he'll have cereal with fruit

Between 12 - 2 he'll have a veggie and a 5oz bottle

Around 5 he'll have a 5 oz bottle

Around 6 he'll have a meat/veggie combo and sometimes fruit.

At 7:30 he'll take about 4 oz.

So that's 21 oz. That's a typical day give or take a few oz's.

However the 3 days in daycare they tell me he takes 3 7oz bottles while there!!! Not sure I believe he's doing that. Assuming they aren't exaggerating on daycare days he's eating close to 35 oz and 3 meals. Go figure.....

He only woke for middle of the night feedings when he was cutting a tooth, because he barely ate during the day.
