How many ounces of milk does your lo drink in a day?

Question

My lo drinks anywhere between 23-32 ounces of milk. Her doctor told me I should cut back or water it down and that she should remain around 24 ounces. Just curious on how much your lo drinks on a daily basis. 
We are working on sippy cups but will only drink water from them. She needs her bottle of milk for nap/bedtime. Bedtime she usually drinks anywhere from 9-14oz.

Answer

I don't limit milk. This is something I have never limited for my kids. Juice dehydrates them and my daughter won't really drink water. The Dr worries about too much milk because it can block iron absorption and cause anemia. My kids have never been animic they get their iron checked and they have all always eaten well so I don't worry about their iron. As long as my child is happy and healthy she will get as much milk as she wants. If you're worried you can always give your kid 2% there's less fat in it. No one in my house drinks whole milk. It's either 2% or skim.

Answer

8oz max in total: 5 before bed at 2-3 first thing but she really couldn't care less about that at the moment.

Answer

My daughter drinks 14-16 ounces a day of milk and sips on water throughout the day

Answer

My daughter drinks usually about 16oz a day but can go anywhere from 12-24oz (only with meals). I don't worry about limiting her. I also give her water in her straw cup between meals. Funny though, I was borderline anemic during pregnancy and taking iron supplements because I drank so much milk! It was my main craving. My husband and I were going through about two gallons a week!

Answer

16-20oz, 4oz juice & I offer water throughout the day

Answer

My daughter was EBF until 15 months when she weaned herself. She is not big on milk of any form but I offer her almond milk before bed and she will only drink about 2-3oz of it. I put almond milk or coconut milk her her smoothies daily she she drinks it that way but other than that she doesn’t get much. We have the opposite going on but the doctor is not concerned at all.
