My 7MO is on 4 milk feeds (180ml) a day and on 2 BLW meals. Approximately when can his milk feeds be reduced to 3 daily?

Hi, just to share, my 2.5 yo toddler is still taking 4 milk feeds a day. I think the key is not really how often he drinks but how much he drinks in a day. Food before 1 years is mostly for fun and learning. For an 8 month old, he'll need about 24ounce/720ml a day. This is just an average given by the AAP. Some babies drink more, some drink less. As long as your bub is growing (cross check against the weight/height records per month), he'll be ok! ;) https://www.healthychildren.org/English/ages-stages/baby/feeding-nutrition/Pages/Sample-One-Day-Menu-for-an-8-to-12-Month-Old.aspx
