How much milk

How much milk / how many bottles is your baby on? My LG is about to be 11m and my MIL makes me feel like I’m doing wrong with how much milk and food she’s getting. She’s never been a big eater at all, it’s always been a struggle with her. She was on 4 bottles of 6oz (doesn’t always finish), but recently dropped down to 3 bottles as she is now having dinners and actually eating it but wouldn’t eat it if she had that fourth bottle. I feel like I am doing right by my LG but I am always made to feel like I don’t know enough. I know milk is priority until 1yo but how the hell is she supposed to be on 3meals and 2 snacks a day from next month if I don’t gradually start the process?!! Really just need to vent. 😤

We're on 3 bottles of 8ozs and 3 meals with the odd snack occasionally but I can't see him dropping to 2 bottles anytime. You know what she needs best I wouldn't worry too much about when they turn exactly 1 it will happen in the coming couple of months slowly

We're on 3 8oz bottles and 3 meals a day with a snack occasionally.

We're on 2 8oz (morning and night) and a 7oz at about 3pm with three meals a day. I've not introduced any snacks yet as she's only just started properly wanting meals and if I give her a snack between I think it'll put me back at square one. She also has started not finishing her bottles. You know your baby best, pay no attention to back seat drivers 😌

We do 3 bottles (6oz morning, 6oz lunch, 7oz bedtime) with 3 meals a day and some light snacks. Hoping to drop the lunch bottle when she starts nursery next month

We do 3 x 7oz bottles and 3 meals a day. She rarely finishes the bottles. My aim is to drop the third one just before her birthday (or before if I can). And then obviously just slowly replace the formula morning and night with cows milk. What you’re doing is exactly right so don’t listen to other people honestly x

Mine has 2 5oz bottles which she doesn't always drink all of in the day. One boob session and 1 bottle at night. So 4 feeds. She has 3 meals and sometimes a snack. Mine gets FOMO so if I'm out she won't eat or drink unless it's something she really likes

1 actual bottle before bed and formula in breakfast instead, but only because she refuses a bottle first thing. She has about 12oz per day, sometimes less x

We're on 3 or 4 bottles of 5oz 150ml formula a day. 3 meals.
