Pumping moms: How much breastmilk does your 9-12 month old drink each day

DD is almost 9 months. My supply has gone down a little bit over the last few weeks, and my freezer stash is getting relatively small.

Just curious how many ounces your older infant is drinking per day. DD is drinking about 24 ounces a day, and a few ounces in her cereal. I know their intake usually decreases as they get older, so just trying to figure out our supply.

Thanks!

I would love to know this too!

Right now DS has a really good nursing session in the morning and night (probably 6-8 oz I am guessing ) and he has 2 x 8-9oz bottles a day at daycare.

So in total I am guessing between 25-30 oz per day.

ETA: He will be 9 months this week.

At that age, DS went from four 8 oz bottles to three 8 oz bottles of bm a day. His intake did not change when he was switched to whole milk.

DD is 9.5 months and drinks 24oz a day, down from 32oz since about 8 months. We had her 9 month appt last week and my ped wants her to maintain at 24 and not dip below (but we've had weight issues all along)

She won't touch cereal with a ten foot pole, lol, so I don't any input on those ounces.
