After a year and three months of continuous development and growth, the child also grew about 8 teeth, further strengthened their ability to eat, and ate more daily food supplements. At this point, there may be some changes in the daily milk intake of children, and parents may not know how much milk to feed their children appropriately. So, what is the amount of breastfeeding for 15 months?
How much formula does a 15 month old baby eat
After 15 months, a baby's milk intake is usually around 600ml, mainly consisting of formula milk. The nutrition in formula milk is balanced, scientifically proportioned, and can provide the baby with the necessary nutrients for a day. At least 500ml of milk should be ensured every day, and the rest should be supplemented with complementary foods such as rice, noodles, vegetables, and meat in a timely manner. The addition of complementary foods should follow the principle of adding from single to multiple, from soft to hard, and from small to large.
How to choose milk powder
At this stage, the baby has basically stopped breastfeeding. When the baby is 15 months old, they usually drink formula milk every 3 and a half to 4 hours. For children who are fed formula milk, because formula milk is not as easy to digest as mother's milk and also has more satiety than mother's milk, mothers do not need to consider the choice and conversion of formula milk brands too much, as long as they are suitable for the baby's taste. Children under 2 years old should not drink low-fat fresh milk. According to foreign research reports, giving children low-fat milk powder too early can have adverse effects on their height development. Therefore, for children under 2 years old, it is still more appropriate to drink whole milk.
Finally, I would like to remind parents that most 1-year-old and 3-year-old babies still wake up at night to drink milk. This is a normal phenomenon, parents don't have to worry. If children eat more, it means they are growing rapidly and need nutrition. As long as it is within the standard range, there is no problem. When choosing formula, the above also provides some tips. Finally, I hope that all parents' children can grow up healthy!
