How many oz does your 1.5 year old drink/day?

Question

Might be taking a trip away next May. My little one will be a year and 7 months around then. I honestly don’t know how to gage where she’ll be in a year from now. How much milk does your breastfed baby eat at a year and a half? 
I know all babies are different but I’m hoping this will help me get a better idea so I can freeze extra milk ahead of time.

Answer

3-4 boob-fulls. I stopped pumping at a year so I have no idea how much she’s actually getting 🤷🏻‍♀️

Answer

That’s some seriously advanced planning...it’s only good in the freezer for 6 months so you can’t even pump it for another half a year.

Answer

I would say 4-10 oz.... but at 18 months any breast milk would be wonderful!!!

Answer

How long will you be gone?  Does baby take bottles now?  Do you plan on pumping to give baby in a cup at that age?  
My kids wouldn’t take breastmilk in a cup at that age. If it was only one overnight, they’d likely been fine but I can’t say for sure.

Answer

I no longer breastfeed and my daughter now drinks whole milk but at age one our pediatrician recommended no more than 12-14 oz of milk a day for children 12-24 months. We switched pediatricians for insurance purposes at 15 months and our new pediatrician had the same recommendation. I’m not sure if the same rule applies with breast mil though. She drinks water throughout the day with 6 oz of milk at breakfast and 6 oz before bed.

Answer

Do you exclusively pump? I don’t have an answer for pumps, but my daughter is 13 months & nurses like 4-6 times a day. 
At that age you could also give milk (cow, goat, almond, etc). So do 50/50.
