Dr. Lori Semel answered

Specializes in Pediatrics

Not Healthy: You need to cut down the milk to 16 ounces per day, a maximum would be 24 ounces. The baby needs to have a balanced diet with the right nutrients to grow properly. In addition, drinking this much milk can make the child have anemia (low rbc). Also, please be careful not to replace the milk with juices.
