Does your baby drink the same amount of breastmilk/formula when eating solid food?

Question

When introducing solids, does your baby still eat the same amount of formula/breastmilk?

Answer

He eats the same or sometimes more than he did before he started solids. Under a year their main food source should still be milk or formula!

Answer

Yes. Solid food shouldn't ever replace a nursing session or a bottle until they are at least a year old. I've got a two year old and a 9 month old and neither of them nursed less after starting solids.

Answer

At 4 months, my LO went from 36oz of formula to 18oz formula + 18oz solids + 3-5oz water by 8 months. She’s got healthy/regular diapers (4poops 8 wet), takes 2 90 minute naps and sleeps 11 hours at night. She’s also got 3 teeth, uses 5 signs, and tries to stand on her own.
What works for my baby is bound to be different for others. Each baby is different. As long as the doctor says everything is okay, don’t let others tell you what’s normal and what isn’t. ❤️

Answer

She at about the same! My guess is 24 oz a day. As she usually drinks 9 oz of breastmilk while I’m at work.

Answer

Food should be a supplement. I always give bottles first and an hour or so later he will have his food.

Answer

My daughter for some reason started eating more milk 🤷🏼‍♀️ she was eating only 3oz every 2-3 hours until 8 months.  Now she’s almost 10 months and takes 6 Oz every hour + the solids.
