  1. My daughter will be six months old on the 25th and her schedule is something like this:

    6:00 a.m.- 5 ounces formula

    9:30 a.m.- 5 ounces formula

    11:30 a.m.- 1/2 container veggies, 1/2 container fruit, 4 ounces water

    1:00 p.m.- 5 ounces formula

    4:30 p.m.- 5 ounces formula

    6:30 p.m.- 1/2 container veggies, 1/2 container fruit, 4 ounces water

    8:30 p.m.- 5 ounces formula

    So I guess she has 25 ounces of formula during the day (and sometimes one extra bottle in during the night) and 8 ounces of water during the day.

    I hope this helped!


  2. My daughter who will be 6 months in 2 days, it varies with the amount of oz she drinks anywhere from 4-5oz but 6-7 bottles a day. She also has 2 servings of solids a day, fruit in the morning and veggies for dinner. She will be starting a 3rd meal soon. I also giver her a bottle an hour before her solids, to make sure she gets the nutrients she needs first. Its important to keep up with the breastfeeding/formula more then the solids at this point.  

  3. at 6 months old my son had a fruit and some cereal in the morning at nap time he had a 6oz bottle for lunch he had veggies and about a 4 oz bottle another 6 oz bottle with nap and dinner was cereal and veggies and 7 oz bottle at bed time

  4. he's always had his bottles every 3 hours since he was about 6 months old.

    even now that he's a year and eating lots of solids, he still gets a bottle every 3 hours  

  5. I'm not exactly sure what you are asking, but my 7 month old son went through a growth spurt around 6 months and he would drink a 10oz bottle about every 3 hours, and he also had about 4 oz of infant cereal three times daily. That seemed to keep him nice and full. He also had a bottle of juice in there somewhere! lol  

  6. It was a while ago but i think i gave mine an 8oz at 6am then breakfast at 8.30. bottle at 11ish then sleep lunch at 1ish. bottle agin at 2pm followed by another sleep. Tea between 4 and 5pm folled by another bottle then bath at 7pm bottle and bed. The day would start again at 6am.

    So she was having 5 8oz bottles every day and milk on her cereal yogurts and other dairy products this stayed the same up until she was about 9 months old when 2 of the bottles were taken out.

  7. My 6 month old drinks 5-6 bottles a day but the amount at each feeding varies.  For what it's worth, he drinks 90% breast milk and has formula to supplement.  He only drinks 3-4oz in the morning and it increases throughout the day.  He is usually up to around 10oz or more for his last bottle.  He drinks approx 32-36oz all day and evening (and sleeps through the night).
