Bottles

My boy is 11 months next Thursday and he drink about 14oz and the HV said that fine !

Do you automatically feed him a bottle at those times or does he give you cues that he's hungry at those times? If it's the former maybe wait for his cues between the 11 and 3 bottle to see if it's best merging those together and having 1 bottle inbetween those times.

My LG is almost 11 months and I basically just go off of cues and times. IE I think we're in a regression so she's waking up of a night to have a bottle. If it's around 5am then I don't make another at wake up 6/7am. I wait for her to tell me she's hungry or we move straight to breakfast at 8am.

When we saw the health visitor a couple of weeks ago she said it was fine for babies to have around 15oz in a 24h period. Currently my LG has 3/4 in the day and one at night. We offer 6 oz and I think she drinks 4-5 so I think I'm going to lower the bottles to 5oz and see what happens.

When does he have breakfast, lunch and tea/ dinner and when's wake up and bed time

My baby’s having the exact same amount a day too at the same times. We have started to drop a bottle around 11am if she has a decent enough meal and sometimes give her a snack. She’s also been randomly waking up at night for a bottle too. I’m just honestly going by her cues and whenever she’s hungry

Just to answer a few questions, wake up varies usually between 6-7am, he doesn’t wake at all in the night, lunch is at 12 and dinner is at 5pm and he’s asleep for 7

I’ve just recently cut my daughter from 3 bottles to 2. She used to have 3oz, then 6oz, then 5oz. So I cut the 3oz morning one. I do give her 2 snacks a day with lunch and dinner though. She has the same wake and bedtime as your baby and doesn’t wake in the night.

I'd drop the 11am one if he's having lunch at 12. We recently did this with my little boy, he has a bottle when he wakes up (between 6-7am), breakfast 9am, lunch 12, bottle 3pm, tea between 5-6pm and bottle before bed (He's a late sleeper so usually around 9pm).

He drinks more of his milk now on 3 bottles than he did on 4

My LB was feeding at 8, 12, 4 and 8. I dropped 12 o’clock one as he was having lunch shortly after and then bought 4 o’clock one forward to 3 x

I give a bottle before each sleep essentially. Morning nap, about 10 depending on what we're doing. 3-4 o'clock and then a big one before bed.

My baby is about the same age and she drinks one in the morning and one at night but I’m thinking of dropping the morning one xx

My LG is in 2-3 a day and these are 8oz bottles. She doesn’t always drink them all but she will have one in the morning and one at night for definite (unless her dinner has been late and she won’t drink the bottle then) and the one in the middle of the day varies depending on what we’re doing

But I’m not looking into the whole cows milk transition and it’s a minefield !
