How much is your 5 month old drinking?

So DD just turned 5 months, and we've been giving her cereal, fruits and veggies since 3 months. She's gaining weight and a very happy baby but I'm a little paranoid that she's not drinking enough formula.

Right now she takes a max of 4-8 ounce bottles a day, but she is also eating solids three times a day. Cereal and fruit in the morning, veggie and fruit at lunch and cereal, veggie and fruit at night.

Recently she's been falling asleep at 8 and missing out on her last bottle.

Even with three bottles, she's taking in 24 ounces I guess I'm just concerned that it's not enough....Chat Icon Chat Icon

My DS is 6 months and drinks 5 x 6oz bottles per day. He doesnt always finish them now since he is on 3 meals a day also.
