Dum question but

I give my baby 3 6oz bottles of whole milk so a total of 18oz a day & he eats 3 meals and usually two snacks , I try to not give him a lot of milk because from my understanding it can cause anemia

@giselle thank you for replying! Do you give it before each meal , during eating or after ?

@giselle I usually nursing him 3 times counting the morning before have breakfast

what works for us is i give him his first bottle when he wakes up before breakfast , and usually about an hour after that he eats his breakfast, I only give him his second bottle after his lunch if he asks for it before his nap, and then he’ll eat his dinner and he gets his 3rd bottle right before bed

maybe you can try replacing his midday nursing session with whole milk because I found it harder to wean him off his bedtime session

@giselle I should try that the only problem is he still nursing at night so should I just do that until I don’t get more milk 🤔

I only offer water during his meals because milk can block the absorption of iron and other vitamins i believe

@giselle ok n he don’t like it that much but I mix it with a little of banana because one mom suggested in here n like that he took 2 oz that day

@giselle yeah I heard of that

i’m not sure about the night feeds :(
