How much formula should he be having?

[Jakabella]

H man is 6.5 months old. He is a big boy (12 kg and over 100% for everything) and he is into his food big time! He eats 3 meals a day as well as snacks in between. The problem is he is no longer interested in his bottles. He would be lucky to finish half of each of his day bottles he drinks a whole bittle vegore bed while half asleep and still wakes at night and has a whole bottle then. I have tried limiting his food and ofering bottles but he still only drinks half. I have tried offering bottle before food but still not interested. Is 3 bottles enough at his age? He drinks water during the day and ears a very varied diet and is thriving!
Just thought he would be drinking more bottles??

What size bottles? At his age my DD1 was only doing 120mls max per bottle... but she would do that 5 times a day.

At bed time and over night he drinks the full 240ml but during the day will only drink 2 or 3 if lucky 120ml or less..

I'm not used to is as DD was still having 240ml every 4 hrs at that age!

OK, DD1 was big as well, and she was eating and drinking exactly the same amount at that age.... so sounds like your DS is healthy and happy .

Sounds AOK to me - he is eating very well & you are offering him water for hydration - keep doing what you are doing
