DD is 8.5 months old and has been switched fully to FF from BF in the last few weeks. She had been down to 2 or 3 breast feeds a day (none overnight) & a bottle of formula at bedtime.
The formula carton says she should be on 3 x 210ml feeds but initially she was only taking 80-120mls per feed, so I made sure she was getting 4 bottles a day. I was also keen to keep giving bottles an hour before breakfast/lunch/tea as she was taking very enthusiastically to solids and I wanted to maintain the balance if predominantly milk.
But! These past few days she has been sinking 180mls at every feed (that's as much as I put in a bottle - she has been crying when it is empty but I was worried I shouldn't offer more) and is still guzzling 2-3 solid meals a day. She is a complete spoon refuser so the portions are relatively small but not insignificant!
With BF I was in blissful ignorance as to how much she was drinking but now I am starting to fret that I am over feeding her. I mentioned it to the HV (bad idea) who did say I should be dropping feeds.. Any advice would be welcome as I am clueless when it comes to FF.
