    My 6 month old baby only has 2-3 bottles a day help
    :confused: my 6 month old only weighs 7kg he usually has 4 230 ml bottles a day and 1 1/2 to 2 tins of food a day but he has just dropped down to 2 -3 bottles a day if I'm lucky I took him to my health clinic and she said that he needs more milk but he just won't have it I've tried to put it in his solids but he still won't have it what should I do he has a lot of milky things to eat because he is only drinking 2-3 bottles so I thought that might help like it might be nearly as good as giving him 4 bottles does that sound OK I'm really stuck

    Talk to your pediatrician about this. But a good rule of thumb is 120ml per kg per day. So that will change according to your baby's weight.
