My son who is 8.5 months old now, drinks 4 bottles a day at about 5 oz each... he weighs in at about 21lbs.... he seems to be growing and is for sure satisfied! :)

my almost 8 month old is starting to cut back his milk - he was taking 4 7oz/day now he's taking 4 5-6oz a day (dr told me at his 6 months visit that he would be starting to cut himself back because of the food) - he's eating breakfast, lunch, supper and bedtime snack (table foods). he's 22lbs and 28 inches....

We are at 7 oz. Sometimes she'll drink a little less. I can usually only get her to drink 8 oz at bedtime.

My little guy is 8.5 months and was born 9/5/09. He was 2 1/2 weeks early. He has been drinking between 4 to 6 oz. of formula at a time. However, he does eat a lot of solid foods already adn finger foods. He weighs 16.5 pounds and is 28in long. I think drinking 8oz is a little much for and 8 month old. Dont over feed your little one. She'll let you know if she is still hunger and wants more.

My son was at 8 oz for about 2 months, then all of a sudden (he's teething..thats really the only reason i can think of) he is back down to 6 oz! He still drinks the same amount each day..just in an extra bottle!

I'm at 7oz...I was stuck at 6oz for a long time too. I started with just his bedtime bottle at 7oz and then the rest just kind of followed along a few weeks later.
