re: formula fed 6-8mo olds

Quoting Sarah Bare-ah♡:" I got really sad yesterday in Target. I was looking at all these cute baby clothes but they only go ... [snip!] ... could have squeezed him in them and they would have looked fine but he'd only wear them like once or twice. It was sad though."

yeah... i'm having the issues with getting sad about all the cuter clothes being smaller and only going to 9 months. lol.

DD is 11 months but at 6-8 months she was fed table foods 3 times a day plus 3 snacks a day and drank 40oz of formula some days 50 oz.

Always 10oz at a time.

Quoting Kimber's Mommy:" DD too. she's pretty tall and 12 month onesies have fit her great for the past month or two (she's 9 ... [snip!] ... some 18 month sleepers that fit her pretty well, also. she's too damn big. grows out of everything i buy her in like two weeks."

DS is 6 months and in 18-24 pjs and onesies...18mo pants and 18 month shirts. Growing out of a size 3 shoe now. I feel like hes huge compared to my girls! And I feel you on growing out of everything! We got the kids all fall/winter clothes in Oct and by Dec we were buying the next 2 sizes for him  

She is 11 months and has been on solids since 6 months she had 8 teeth now started getting the at 5 months

Quoting L&B +1:" how old is your DD? Does she have teeth? He loves the baby food we've given him so far, but maybe Im just not giving him enough of it? "

haha omg! I'm 5'8" and was big as well...SO is 6'4". I have big babies, so I expected him to be bigger. But even at 9lbs my oldest didnt eat like this lol. Often times when hes done with a 7oz bottle he will whine for a minute, like he wanted more!

<blockquote><b>Quoting Sarah Bare-ah♡:</b>" That isnt enough formula. I would cut back on the solids. She needs to be getting at least 24oz a day."</blockquote>



My doctor isn't concerned. She just switched to formula and she still nurses once or twice a day. She is super small and just doesn't eat much. Even w/o the solids she was eating the same amount... She needs solids it helps her keep weight on.

Oh see you didnt mention you were still nursing. LOL I was over here thinking she only had 6 oz of liquids a day.
