We started at 3 months with 4-four ounce bottles, then around 6 months moved to 3 - five ounce bottles, and around 9 months went to 2 five ounce bottles (since she was eating a lot). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-divvy-up-your-milkformula-into-feeding-portions-for-childcare#post-215292 Mon, 09 Jul 2012 12:08:24 +0000 autumnlove 215292@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our daycare requires prepared bottles for separate feedings. I usually give them two 5 ounce bottles and two 4 ounce bottles. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-divvy-up-your-milkformula-into-feeding-portions-for-childcare#post-215269 Mon, 09 Jul 2012 11:48:11 +0000 regberadaisy 215269@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What do you do?</p> <p>I typically put all milk pumped from one session into one pumping bottle and leave it like that for my mom. The reason being she doesn't always drink the same amount at each feeding. In the mornings she'll take from 3-4 oz while in the afternoon it's about 2-3 oz.</p> <p>I'm thinking of just bringing the breastmilk from each pumping session in a bottle, label the times for day care. Then I also have the RTF bottles to supplement.</p> <p>What do you do? Do you divvy up formula/bm into feeding portions? </p>
