Question for Moms of 5 months old
I am EBF and work 3 days a week (out of the house about 8 hrs.) During that time, my 5 month old DD drinks about 16 ounces. (She is not on any food yet.) Is 16 oz typical over 8 hours for a 5 month old?

Re: Question for Moms of 5 months old
My son is almost 5 months - he drinks about 5-6 oz every 3 hours - so in a 8 hour period - he'd probably only have 2 bottles so 10-12 oz. But in 9 hours 15-18 oz. Hope that makes sense.
He drinks about 30oz of formula a day and 2 meals (cereal with a jar of fruit).

My DD drinks 7 oz. every 3-4 hours...typically she drinks 35 oz. a day...I'm starting her on cereal this week.

Re: Question for Moms of 5 months old
DD was drinking about 5 ounces every 4 hours up until a few days ago. Now that she's got a cold, she's drinking 3 ounces of formula and some water every 3 - 4 hours.
I'm hoping she goes right back to the 5 ounces once she's feeling better
