If your DC eats 3 meals a day, how much
formula or breastmilk is he/she drinking?
I just started giving DD 3 meals
3 tbsp cereal with stage 2 fruit (breakfast)
1 stage 2 veggie (lunch)
1 stage 2 meat/veggie jar with a stage 2 fruit (dinner)
She's only drinking about 20 oz a day now.
Should she be drinking more?
eta: she doesn't always eat everything listed above.

That sounds about right. Steven eats a bit more formula than that, but he has a big bottle at the end of the night.

That's similar to what DDs are eating, but they are drinking about 30 oz. (some days more, some days less) each day.

Christopher is eating pretty much the same thing as your DD. He will drink the most 20 ounce a day usually less. He is not a big eater or drinker though.

DD is pretty much on the same schedule. Sometimes I'll add a 1/2 stage 2 fruit at lunch if she still seems hungry.
At our 6 mos check up I was told I can start to introduce yogurt and cottage cheese (haven't done it yet, but will probably start this week).
I was also told w/three meals a day, her formula consumption may drop, but as long as she was getting anywhere btwn 16-24oz...that was okay.

That goes for my DD as well. She probably only has about 15 oz of BM a day in addition to 3 meals.

Luca has 3 meals and 4 6oz bottles a day. He's starting to phase out his afternoon bottle. So it's sounds like Hannah is having enough formula.
