But he was FF so not sure if that makes a difference. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-oz-does-your-six-month-old-eat#post-2199365 Thu, 04 Jun 2015 16:55:15 +0000 MamaG 2199365@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Miss Ariel: Yes, she is FF. And yes, I think she eats too much. I don't remember my older taking 7 bottles per day at this age. I believe we were down to 5! Ugh! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-oz-does-your-six-month-old-eat#post-2199334 Thu, 04 Jun 2015 16:24:40 +0000 josina 2199334@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ethan takes 5 oz bottles, just 2 right now at daycare, but hopefully working back up to 3? I'm wondering if we need to push the 3rd bottle or let him dictate that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-oz-does-your-six-month-old-eat#post-2199311 Thu, 04 Jun 2015 15:54:15 +0000 Miss Ariel 2199311@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>K eats 4, 4.5 ounces of pumped milk a day and then nursing once before bed and once in the morning.in general she's always able to finish the bottle, although the times we've tried to add a 5th bottle she really isn't interested.<br /> @MamaG: your answer makes me think we're under feeding K, but isn't you K ff? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-oz-does-your-six-month-old-eat#post-2199309 Thu, 04 Jun 2015 15:52:44 +0000 Truth Bombs 2199309@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My LO also would eat as much as you would put in a bottle. She was EBF. At 5 months we topped out at 5 ounce bottles every 3 hours, and then at 6 months when we added solids into her routine we went back to 4 ounce bottles every 3 hours. (This was a day care, at home she typically kept to the every 3 hours schedule but I really just let her nurse whenever she wanted to.) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-oz-does-your-six-month-old-eat#post-2199282 Thu, 04 Jun 2015 15:29:20 +0000 MamaG 2199282@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>K eats 6 oz at a time, and she typically gets 6-7 bottles per day. She's a big kid (as you know!). I'd really like to eliminate bottle #7 MOTN! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-oz-does-your-six-month-old-eat#post-2199263 Thu, 04 Jun 2015 15:20:02 +0000 winniebee 2199263@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>R will eat whatever is in the bottle. He's a piggy! But usually I have 5 oz for him. He acts hungry 3 hours later. He's ebf</p> <p>How much does your 6m old eat? </p>
