How much milk does your 1 year old have?

I was doing 3 breastfeeds. I kept doing the morning one before solids up until recently as I'm not a morning person so liked the slow start. Since giving solids first I keep forgetting the breastfeed and Elle doesn't seem bothered.   She has refused my right side for 2 days now (she's always preferred the left) and there is still barely any milk in it so I'm guessing that side is near to dried up.

In short, she is really not that interested in breastfeeds and is only having 1 small one a day.

So far she refuses cows milk or soya but will happily have about 150mLs rice milk a day.

She is eating a lot less than she used to as well so overall she isn't having a lot of anything.
Breakfast is good - 1.5 weetbix with fruit and milk
Lunch - equivalent of 1 small tin of baby food + 1/2 piece of bread
Dinner - equivalent of half a small can of food + a yoghurt.
Snacks - she doesn't really have anything else, generally throws things away.

Jack did the same thing at the same age just wasn't really interested so I let him wean. He wasn't interested in cows milk after that so I ended up giving him cows milk with a wee bit of chocolate milk in there as well. He loved that and then I reduced the amount of chocolate milk and now he drinks it sweet as.

Sorry can't help you on the food front Jack has always been a huge eater but I think at her age she will eat what she needs as long as you offer her a well balanced diet.

I'm not sure anymore exactly how much milk Erin drinks, my guess would be somewhere in the neighborhood of 500-600mls - this is full fat cows milk with the occasional scoop of toddler milk formula in it. She also has anywhere from half a cup (sippy cup) to two cups of water. Regular meals plus snacks. I am happy to elaborate on anything if you need me to

600mls is the absolute minimum amount of fluid that your child should be consuming a day. As recommended by Plunket and Dr's (I've asked!). But this isn't just water in a cup and breast feeds, it's also fluid in foods and snacks. Yoghurt/soups/custards and even the sauce in tinned spaghetti is considered fluid.

Hi Guys, fiona, Vincent feeds off me heaps, but i don' tknow how much he drinks. He has been off his food lately too. NOt eating any baby food! just a bit of finger food. Looked on huggies website yesterday about it, and apparently if they are starting to stand and walk, they tend to go off their food. Not sure if this helps or not?
