    I can only speak for babies from 7 months on....buuuut, DS#1 never drank a whole bottle until he started on cows milk at 12 months and Noah will only drink between 60mls - 180mls...so now I just make up a 180ml for his first bottle and last bottle and the 2 in between I make up to 120mls.....so sick of wasting formula!

    I have always worked on the if bubs is happy, alert, weeing and pooing and sleeping when they should....all is well and it is just a stage. (I think kids have too many stages and they should review them before they decide to be born so we can get them over and done with at the age of 18 yrs old! lol )

    My CHN has also always said to me that weighing them is a good indication...never did it with Bailey but with Noah I have had him weighed when I start to wonder if he is okay and each time he has put on some weight.

    If in doubt, see your CHN! or ask us here at BB!!!!

    Yes some great advice. I guess i shouldn't take things so literal. They are little individuals after all
