How much expressed breast milk at BT for 9wo?
« on: February 20, 2015, 23:29:27 pm »
We are experimenting with offering Isla a bottle of expressed breast milk at the bedtime feed but I'm unsure how much to offer.

In your experience how much do EBF 9wos drink from a bottle at the BT feed?

Thanks.

G always took between 4-6oz from when he was about 2mo until he was... well, I don't actually remember the last time we offered... probably 9 or 10mo. He's always been in the upper percentiles (I think 75/80 is as low as he's gone), though not sure that makes a difference. Baby C only ever took about 4oz (and did so only from 6-10/11 weeks :P).

I think I always started by offering about 4oz and DH and my mom told me G drained it every time, so then we offered more.

DD2 eats more frequently so seems to eat less, around 3oz.  But i'd have 4oz ready because she has done close to that before
