A member asked:
How much breastmilk should a 6 month old be getting a day? (she also eats some solids)
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Nurse every 2 hours: You cannot really measure how much they get, but measure by time. You should nurse your child for at least 30 minutes per feeding, and every two hours.
