feeding and milk intake

DD is on pretty much all table food. She's just over 10month. according to the wholesome baby food sight at her age her formula intake should be twenty four to thirty one ounces. I'd say DD probably takes more than that. I know food before one is for fun but should I be offering larger portion? I have no idea if it makes a difference but she's 90th % for weight... always has been.

dd is almost 11 months, gets 3 8 oz bottles a day, doesn't always finish. so she drinks roughly from 20-24 oz per day which ped told me to aim for 20.

Re: feeding and milk intake

She takes 5, 6oz bottles a day sometimes more so I think I need to encourage the solids a little bit more.

What does she typically eat and how often?

Re: feeding and milk intake

Typically breakfast, lunch and dinner. I give her fruits and veggies. I try protein like chicken although she just throws it on the floor. I give her a waffle for breakfast with fruit or gerber ravioli for lunch with veggies. I try to mix it up but the portions are fairly small.

Re: feeding and milk intake

My ped said they should be getting 20. Mine get about 24. I offer food first at 2/3 meals per day plus occasional puffs for snacks, but they also get a 3 oz bottle after meals. Eventhough they cry to get out of the highchair like they are done, they will take the 3 oz so I give it. (they basically split the amount of 3/4 of a sandwich without crusts and don't finish, so not much.)
