Post by: *happy* on December 04, 2012, 09:26:02 am
the last few days, DD has only taken 1-2oz at her first feed!!!! ::) ::) ::)
she's not making up for it at her other 2 bottles, so i'm getting kinda worried!
any advice on what i should do?she'll be 11 months on the 16th...how many oz should she be taking?

She should still be up around 20 ozs a day, but in a month, her suggested intake drops to a mere 16 ozs in Canada (12ozs in the UK)... remember that other dairy counts too... yogurt, cheese etc.

Have you tried putting it in a sippy with meals to boost her a touch?
