How many bottles and how many ounces of formula is your baby drinking now? How long do they go between bottles now?

He probably gets an average of 35oz a day. 6oz at nap time (2-3 naps a day), 5oz first thing in the morning, and 7-10oz when he goes down for bed at night; plus if he wakes up in the middle of the night he'll normally get another 5. He also eats 3 meals of solids and 1 snack a day....

Yeah, and the doctor was saying he's one the thinnest kids she sees.

Avery gets 4-8oz bottles per day. She gets one when she wakes-up, one after the am nap, one after the pm nap & one at bedtime. She's eating solids pretty well, too. She usually gets something at all 3 meals & loves yogurt so she gets that at least once per day. Tonight she ate peas, carrots & little bits of turkey/hamburger meatloaf (I mix most things 50/50 turkey & lean ground beef).

We're doing 4-5 bottles each day - total roughly 24-30ozs.

9am
12
2pm
6pm
8pm

She's doing solids and milk in some bottles. water or diluted juice with meals. Once I get her transitioned to milk, I think I'm going to start replacing mid day bottles with sippy cups with water.

We do four 8 ounce bottles a day. One when she wakes up, after morning nap, after pm nap and before bedtime. She's eating solids twice a day--morning and evening with a snack in the middle of the day. I think she's ready for another meal midday though, so we'll be adding that.

I just started all formula, so I'm glad to see what everyone else is doing. It changes around every day.

5 or 6 am - 7 oz
9 am - 7 oz
11:30 - 7 oz
3:00 - 7 oz
6:00 - 7 oz

Sometimes she skips one of the middle ones. She is getting 3 meals a day with some water.
