How many ounces per day does your 3 - 6 month old drink?
DD is 4 months old and in a 24hr period she drinks anywhere from 16 - 20oz. She also gets about 1 1/2 tsp. of rice cereal in each bottle, so probably around 2 1/2 tablespoons overall throughout the day. Her weight gain is fine and she's doing great overall, but this just seems like so much less than what other people's babies eat. I'm curious to know how much other babies are taking around this age.

Every baby is different so I wouldn't compare. If your baby is gaining weight, then it's she's getting enough.
DS ate probably about double what DD age as a baby yet they were (and are) both skinny babies and skinny toddlers. It just is what it is.
As long as she's not hungry, she's getting enough to eat.

If I only gave bottles, ds (4 mo), would be taking 24-30 oz a day of breast milk

Ditto. DD drank about the same amount of BM at that age. She drank 3 5.5oz bottles and would nurse about 3 or 4 times. I did a weighted feed a few times and she would average about 4 oz per nursing session.

DD is on formula. She gets 6 ounces every bottle and 3-4 bottles a day. She's 3 months.

My DS must be a slob! He's 5 months old and he drinks 7 oz of formula 5-6 bottles a day.
