Moms of 9-10 month olds: formula feeding
DDs are drinking 4 6oz bottles a day. So I think I have decided to cut out their lunch bottle, bc they are not drinking it and just give them water with lunch.
But does anyone else DC doing this?
How many oz do your DC get a day of formula?
When did you switch to 3 bottles a day?
TIA

Re: Moms of 9-10 month olds: formula feeding
I give BM but I don't give a bottle with lunch, just water. I give a bottle with breakfast and dinner & also between breakfast and lunch and lunch and dinner. So DD gets 4 bottles a day but small bottles. Bottle with breakfast 3 oz., bottle two-hours after breakfast 4oz., bottle two-hours after lunch 4oz. and bottle with dinner 3 oz. Then I just get about an ounce in her cereal. She only gets about 15 oz. of BM a day.

DD is 9 months old and gets 3 bottles a day now. She gets one with breakfast, lunch and at night. She drinks about 5-6 ounces in each bottle.

DS drinks 3- 6oz bottles a day after breakfast lunch and dinner. He has a sippy with water throughout the day, sometimes he drinks a lot, other times not so much. He kind of phased out extra bottles himself.

I wish my boys would do that...they still have 4 8 oz bottles a day. And they act like they are starving before getting one.

Re: Moms of 9-10 month olds: formula feeding
I am trying to give more and more food and cut back on their breakfast, lunch, and dinner bottles, until they are completely cut out. I was thinking of giving water in a sippy cup instead of a bottle at lunch - we'll see though. They're finally doing so well with their eating I hate to change it again!

My 10 month old was like that until last Thursday. He no longer takes any bottle/cup at all. I can't figure out what is going on with him.

same here except we give Jack the bottle 1st, before the meal, otherwise he would never drink it...he would just fill up on food.

Re: Moms of 9-10 month olds: formula feeding
They stopped drinking their after lunch bottle pretty much on their own, they would have like an ounce. I just decided to do away with it and they really dont miss it.
