Breastfeeding mommas, do you still breastfeed or what does your little one drink throughout the day and how much bottles?

Question

Water, Apple juice, or did you switch to whole milk?
I still breastfeed my son, but also offer him water, but he doesn’t always seem to be interested in that and I worry about him to get enough fluids throughout the day..especially when I go to work the 3 out of 7 days each week

Answer

We nurse on demand, sometimes it’s once or twice a day sometimes I lose count. 😂 I offer her whole milk with her meals but try to steer clear of her drinking it in her sippy between meals. Sometimes she drinks all the milk I offer and sometimes none, but I don’t push it. And water between meals and on walks and stuff

Answer

I’m still nursing... A LOT! She drinks 6-9oz of breast milk during the week while I’m at work.. and then nurse when I get home and still throughout the night.. she nurses on the weekends as well(no cups or bottles unless it’s water)

Answer

I still breastfeed twice a day. When she wakes up and before she goes to bed. She loves water and drinks maybe 2-3 8oz sippys. I sometimes offer milk after her nap but she will only drink 1-2oz of it. I’m constantly checking her soft spot to make sure she’s hydrated but it’s starting to get small like the size of a nickel.

Answer

I'm still breastfeeding on demand. Most of the day. We give him snacks,his baby food pouch and/or let him eat some of what we're having but he's allergic to milk, eggs and wheat so it's tough sometimes to feed him what we're eating.

Answer

Still nursing. Right now it’s wake up, at least twice during the day, before bed, and twice overnight (usually). I’m trying to knock out the ones during the day and just have wake up and bedtime and overnight if she still wants it.

Answer

We are still breastfeeding on demand for the most part. But offering whole milk with meals even though he is not a big fan of it. He will maybe drink 2-3oz a day tops. We also leave a straw cup with water somewhere that he can reach and he will drink about 5oz of water a day.

Answer

Skip juice, it’s just sugar. Offer water and fruit if you think they need it. 
We’re breastfeeding semi-on demand. Sometimes if she seems like she wants it I’ll get her milk from the fridge or food to eat, but most of the time what she really wants is attention plus boobies 😂 I don’t nurse usually more than a couple times during the day and a couple at night to get her back to sleep (we bedshare, so it’s easy)

Answer

Breastfeeds before bed and when he wakes up! I keep his water cup around him all day and give him whole milk at meals. I’ve read no juice until at least 2!

Answer

Only nursing once during the day, and getting water for the rest. Had no interest in whole milk 🤷 but seems to be eating plenty so I don't think he needs it.

Answer

My daughter only drinks water and watered down baby food as "juice". She doesn't like whole milk, even with strawberry or chocolate flavor. I sneak her dairy in through her food, but if she did drink it I would probably give her one to two cups a day.
