Is this enough for a 5 month old to be eating...

Right now he has 4 6oz bottles and 5 tbsp of cereal (2 1/2 in the morning and 2 1/2 at night).

By the way some of the milk for the cereal is taken from those 6oz. bottles.

My ped told me that DS should have at least 20-24 ounces of BM/formula a day while on solids. If he dips below, then I should decrease the solids. If he is drinking 24 ounces, I think you are fine, in my opinion.

I'm fine with 20-24 ounces but I will double check and ask the ped on Saturday when we take DS for his regular appointment.

DD is 5 months old and drinks about 25-30 oz per day and 1 TBSP of cereal 1x per day (just started the cereal 1 week ago). Sounds like she's fine with the formula amount so I can give more food.
