: How much formula should a 7 month old baby weighing 16 lbs be drinking at each feed? I have just started my son with formula. I give him one bottle at night and I nurse at all other times. He drinks 3-4 oz. Just wanted to know how much is normal.

Hi Marie, Baby Charlie is 5 months, 17 lbs and he eats 5-6 ozs every three to 4 hours. Sometimes he eats up to 7 oz. After his morning bottle he gets cereal and fruit and then he eats solids again around 5:30-6:00 in the evening. He's a hungry little guy.
