How many bottles a day is your 9 months old drinking?

On most days DD is still getting 4-5 8 oz bottles + solids & table food. Today she has so far gotten 2 bottles and I will give another before she goes to bed. She's had breakfast, lunch & dinner + a snack here and there. I'm thinking this is more appropriate? I just have no idea how much of everything she should be getting.

What is your 9 month olds eating schedule like?

Re: How many bottles a day is your 9 months old drinking?

4 9oz bottles...I think he is getting more than he should, but I am not worried about it

soon, I plan to reduce the amount in each bottle to try to get him down to no more than 30oz per day

Reilly has 4 7oz bottles a day, sometimes she doesn't really finish them. In between there she has 2 sippy cups (not full) of either water or water/juice mix.

She eats breakfast, lunch and dinner and snacks in between.

I was just about to post this because lately DS isnt taking very much formula anymore.

On a good day he'll take 3 8oz bottles and 1 4oz bottle. So, he's only getting about 28oz of formula per day.

On an "off" day, like today...I'm lucky if I get 20oz in him. He loves jarred food and solids, but getting him to take his bottles is becoming a real chore.

DS is not quite 9 months but will be on the 6th of June. He is now down to 2-6oz bottles & 2-4oz bottles a day. He use to do 5-7oz but stopped around 7.5 months. He does get a lot of solid & table food along with sippy cups of juice/water mix or water.

At 9 months DS was getting:

5 7oz bottles (7am, 10am, 1pm, 4pm & 8pm)

breakfast & lunch---soft table foods, baby cereal & purees

snacks of puffs & other soft stuff

Re: How many bottles a day is your 9 months old drinking?

The trio drinks a total of 23 oz of formula along with 3 meals a day. They are only on baby food and do drink about 4oz of water a day. I have tried some table food but they have no interest in it.

DS will be 9 months next week. He usually gets 3- 6 oz bottles and one 8 oz bottle before bed. He also usually gets 3 "meals". I've tried giving him water in a sippy cup occasionally but that is very hit or miss.

Re: How many bottles a day is your 9 months old drinking?

sophia is 8.5 months -- here's her breakdown


530am- 6oz FM
830am - 1 tub fruit or veg
1130pm - 6 oz FM
230pm - 1 tub fruit or veg
530pm - 6oz FM
7pm - 1 yobaby yogurt with oatmeal
830pm - 6oz FM


all times depend on what time she wakes, we go every three hours from there

sooo -- approx 24oz FM/day, 3 meals and she gets some snacks (Puffs, yogurt melts, whatever we're eating). Some days she'll also have water or water/juice mix once or twice a day HTH!

5 bottles per day, 4-5 oz per bottle per our Ped.

Plus breakfast, lunch and dinner (jarred food) and 2 healthy snacks per day (cheese cubes, yogurt, applesauce, puffs etc).
