My dd is coming up to 12 months and she's still having 3 bottles of 7oz a day. Ok she doesn't always have the whole bottle but certainly no less than 5 oz each time. She's been on this routine since about 7months. She also eats a lot of solids - cereal at 830, bottle at 1030, lunch at 1230, bottle between 3-5, dinner at 530-700ish and then final bottle at around 830/9ish.
This is a roughish routine as it changes depending on whther she's at nursery(3 days) or at home, or indeed if we're out & about. On the Formula box, it says that she should still have 3 bottles until 12 months but my friend says that she knows others who only have one bottle now and take a lot of dairy in the solids. Will she naturally want less milk? A few times she's gone to bed at night without having the final bottle but then waking distressed at midnight, wanting her milk. Any advice?
