litte over 5 months old

And he eats one bottle in the morning around 9 something. He eats baby food around 12 or 1 (depends when and how long he sleeps after he eats) then a bottle around 5 and then baby food aroud 8. Is this ok that he only eats 4 times a day? His bottle are 8 ounces and his baby food is a vegetable and a half. And a fruit.

Mine just turned five months yesterday, and this is exactly how shes been eating since four months. Pedi says shes perfectly healthy..

He should be eating at least 20 oz of formula a day, but I would think at this point he should be taking more bottles. ROT should be around 2 oz per pound per day. 28-40 oz usually.

Kenley drinks 4 bottles a day I give her 6 oz but simetimes she only drinks 4 oz. She eats a jar of fruit in the morning and some puffs.

So I actually think he is getting more than enough! 8 oz is a lot for his age.

Yeah and that's with cereal in it also. He won't drink a bottle unless it has cereal in it. But I'm gradually winning him off the cereal in his milk. He's been doin the cereal in his bottle since 2 months. He has reflux.

Hmm You have prolly hurd a million times not to do that. I only tryied it once because i was being lazy and didnt feel like making a bowl of it..it cloged her bottle and i barley put any in it at all.. Its just not a good idea.. if its easier to have the rice in it..use the AR formula. Just sayin.

I'm not doin it bc I chose to. He has reflux. As I said in the comment u replied to. The pedi put him in the cereal in his bottle which has been a life saver. It stopped him spitting up.

Right and thats what the AR formula is.. it has rice in it.. but it has no choaking hazard because it thickens in the belly not the bottle. wich is safer then using the rice in the bottle.. im not knocking giving it to him. .because my LO has been on it and fruit since that age because of her pooping issues.

Right. And I'm not changing his formula when the one he is on suits him just fine.
