If he's getting less than 20 floz a day you'll need to give him a vitamin supplement each day.

I'd say it's fine to up his solids but make sure you're replacing the fat and protein and not just the calcium. He can have oily fish up to 3 times a week so I'd make the most of that.

Have you thought of swapping his formula though of he's never been keen on it? Maybe try Hipp Organic and if that doesn't improve things try Hipp Comfort.

From what you've said it sounds as though he has a feeding aversion, possibly brought on by not suiting Kendamil. Have you read Rowena Bennett's book on feeding aversions?
