DS is on Aptamil Pepti 2. The packet says that from 6m he NEEDS about 600ml a day

He is 7m now and is still having way more than 600mls

Today for example:

6.20am - 8oz
7.20am screamed blue murder so gave another 5oz
11.00am - 7oz
3pm - 7oz
7pm - 8oz before bed

Along with this he had 2/3 of a jar of cow and gate cottage pie and half a pot of fruit puree over 2 'meals'. He's only just (tuesday) started eating anything other than his milk - for AGES he would have a few tiny spoons and then whine/cry/scream.

Am I supposed to stop offering him as many milk feeds? or do I wait for him to take less and cut down that way? The second morning feed (7.20) doesn't always happen, just yesterday and today so far but he literally got himself in such a state I had to give him some more. Some nights he still wakes in the night and has between 5/7 oz then, other nights he wakes and will be resettled without milk.

DD just steadily dropped milk feeds over time. I think the amount on the box is the minimum. She is 11 months old next week and takes 3x7oz a day of standard Aptamil.
