there is not a max amount per day so feed to your lo's appetite (a rough rule of thumb is 2.5oz per lb of body weight but it is just a guide and some babies will take more or less than that).

What age is your lo?

Mine is 15 weeks, she takes approximately 180ml per bottle, fed 5-6 times a day.

There's no maximum amount. The guidelines on the formula tub are based on average weight at each age.
