How much milk should a 13 month have?

We switched Julia to whole milk and are continuing to give her 3 bottles a day - she drinks about 6 ounces from each bottle.

Is 18 ounces of milk enough?

Wanted to add - she has solids for breakfast, lunch and dinner also and we offer her water all the time.......


When did your child switch to 2 bottles?

My other question - Can i water down the milk alittle - Julia has been suffering from constipation - I've given her water, prunes, lots of fruit and it seems not to help her for long......

Thanks so much

Brendan is just about 13 months old and when I first switched him to milk when he turned one, I was giving him 3 8oz bottles/sippy cups. In the past week I stopped giving bottles, only sippy cups and he is drinking much less, but he is eating like a horse!!!

we were down to 2 bottles a day by that age and then we went down to just bedtime.....

got rid of that at 14 1/2 months old when she was sick in March. She hasn't missed the bottle!

18 oz is good....DD gets a sippy with breakfast and dinner with milk and sometimes only drinks half and sometimes drinks it all.

but she eats tons of cheese and will eat yogurt as well
