Right on target: Your baby is right on target. A 10 month old baby who is eating 3 "meals" per day should only be drinking between 18-24 oz of formula. This decreases to 16-20 oz of formula at 11 months while eating 3 "meals" and 2 "snacks and down to 14-16 oz of milk at 1 months while eating 3 meals and 2 snacks. Remember to transition from formula to milk slowly over 1 week

Hi doctor. My baby is just over 4 months old. She is not drinking much of breast milk nor formula milk nowadays. However, she seems interested in food we eat. We have started to give her puree food as well like once a day, and she seems to enjoy?
