Formula/breast milk intake
My baby just turned 10 months old, and I’m wondering how much formula and/or breast milk are you babies eating at or around this age? I feed her 2/3 actual balanced meals a day and 2 or 3 “snacks” a day which can consist of a pouch, fruit, yogurt, or some sort of protein. I feel like she isn’t eating THAT much despite all the food she’s offered but isn’t drinking as much formula as I expected. Just curious how much your babies are going through at this age!

I honestly don’t know. I offer little bites all day long and nurse every few hours but my supply seems very low. I try not to stress about it too much anymore now that his weight is good and he’s pooping 2-3x a day. Every baby’s intake is different too but I think she’ll let you know if she’s hungry or cranky
Some days 22oz, some days 30. We’re working on bottle consolidating (she’s does 6 bottles a day but only like 3-4 oz in the middle of day) so her lunch and dinner and usually larger meals than breakfast

My girly has been having 6-8oz bottles every 3-4 hours since 9 months with 2-3 meals a day currently. Typically her first bottle of the day is 8oz and the rest are 6, sometimes bedtime is only 4oz. When she’s teething she drinks less. We did just increase her nipple flow for her bottles and that made a big difference and is back to eating more as she’s getting less frustrated with the bottle
