How many ounces is your LO taking now?

If nursing, how often does your LO still nurse?

Ross still isnt huge on solids, he loves to try them, but seldom eats a full meal, and he will not eat baby food so thats not an option. Im not going to start really pushing solids until 11 months, since id like him off formula at a year. He still eats lots of bottles, probably 30-35oz during the day, and he was only eating about 5oz at night but lately hes been up every 2-3 hours and eating 5oz every time so he must be having a growth spurt.

I have no clue how many oz he's suppose to get in a day, but he eats three meals a day, plus snacks and usually at dinner I'll give him some of ours (what he can chew) but the past two or three weeks, he's only wanting 2 bottles during the day a 6oz and a 7oz, then he wakes up twice a night and takes two 7oz....so around 27oz a day.....I let him have a sippy with water in it all throughout the day

Lyla usually takes between 20 and 25 oz of formula during the day. She is eating lunch and dinner and a couple of snacks throughout the day. My plan is to add a solid breakfast once school is out.

Ditto for Kinley, except she nurses every 2-3 hours at night. She only nurses for 5 minutes at a time though, day or night.

Macie takes around 20-25oz of formula a day, typically eats three meals and occasionally has a snack or two. She hates baby food so for the most part she's on table food at this point. Every once in awhile a meal won't really include anything 'baby' friendly and we'll use a jar from the pantry, but she pitches a fit everytime about the veggies.

Melanie nurse every 3 to 4 hrs in the day and a couple of times during the night for nursing.

All her baby food is homemade She hates the food from the jars.
And lately her food has got to have more thickness to it or she wont eat it.
For example she had rice and beans yesterday. Usually I make the beans and add seasoning and the veggies and pureed it.

She has lunch and dinner and snacks every once in a while

Hallie takes about 15-18 oz of formula per day. Level 2 jar of baby food for breakfast (or cereal w/fruit) 2 level 2 jars for lunch and 2 for dinner. She loves her foods. She would rather eat than have a bottle.

He still nurses every 2-3 hours. It doesn't bother me too much because he eats so fast now, he is has usually drained my breast within 5 minutes. I think I am losing my supply somewhat too, not sure why though. He still nurses a little off and on at night (anywhere from 2-4 times per night usually), which is kind of annoying but we are still co-sleeping so I can get as much sleep as possible.

He also grazes on solids throughout the day, little bites of whatever we are having. He will not do baby food, never has.

Alivia has anywhere from 20-28oz of formula a day. She doesn't seem to be too interested in her bottles lately.

She does have some baby food, but she is mostly on table food now. She has her food whenever we are eating ours. She either gets what we are having or I will make her something else.

She also has some snacks throughout the day.

I just bought her a new sippy cup with a straw and she does so well with it.
