My 4 month old has been on 8oz bottles for a while. She goes through phases where she'll have 8oz (occasionally more) or like now she's not been finishing most bottles in a day, maybe only 2 are finished (but she does have a cold so might just be off her food). She's very big for her age.
Most of my bottles go up to 8oz and some go to 9oz. Is it likely she'll continue to 9oz and beyond? I don't want to be making up two bottles each time. They're Dr Brown bottles and a faff to wash. I've done lots of searching and have found one type of bottle going to 11oz. Wondering if it's worth investing in a couple if it's inevitable that she'll need 9+? They're on sale just now so that's why I'm asking really. I have spent a lot on bottles as she didn't get on with Tommee Tippee then getting all the Dr Browns ones was expensive. Don't want to waste money but equally don't want to miss the discount if it's highly likely I'll need them.
By the way, she's not eating a huge amount overall in case that's relevant. Just few, but big, bottles.
