milk?

How many ounces of whole milk due/did your 18 month old twinkies drink?

 

My pediatrician told me to give them 16 oz of milk. If you give them too much, it will fill their belly up and then they won't eat as much. Also, if they don't want that much milk, you can substitute other dairy foods in it's place.

 

I give mine 8 oz with each meal and they usually drink 6-8 of that and then before bed they drink 6-8 more. So mine drink a lot but they eat well at each meal also.

 

At 18 months, mine drank perhaps 6 oz a day, total. They were not big milk drinkers at that point. They actually drink more now, because when they're thirsty, they'll chug 6 oz from a sippy all at once. But we still have days when all they do is sip.

 

At 18 months and now even they drink about 16 oz. a day.

 

We were told no more than 14-16 oz. of milk a day. At 18 months mine were drinking about 16 oz. a day.

 

We still get about 21oz a day. they get a 7oz sippy with each meal. At 2, I will be taking it down to 2meals. And pass on lunch. They love their milk.

 

Since 18 months, we've given and 8 oz sippy of milk twice a day. They usually manage at least 6 oz of it, so 12-16 oz per day. We were told 16 oz is the max, so we cut out the lunch sippy at 18 months.

 

My ped said 10-16oz's of milk a day, most days we are right around 10oz's unless they want some before bed then its closer to 16oz's. But mine also eat yogurt and cheese.
