One health visitor says give my 14 month old three bottles and the other says two, or around 500ml. Does anyone have any ideas - maybe i should drop the afternoon feed for a snack. Any ideas gratefully recieved! :-)

I don't think it matters how many bottles as long as they get around 500ml (or if they are taking less you give them extra dairy).

My nearly 11mo has 3 bottles atm but I am planning on dropping the daytime one when she gets to 12mo so she just has a morning and bedtime one!

from 1 year they only need about 300/350 mls of milk so I would drop to 2 bottles (well I would actually start offering some milk from a cup and start phasing out bottles).

Thank you both! It's good to know. :-)
