Hi my bub is 4 months old and I wanted to know what's the average amount of formula milk he should take in a day? The reason I am asking that earlier he used to take close to 1080 ml in a.day but the same has been reduced to close to 800 ml lately. He is activr and the urine output is also normal... I am very tensed and the milk intake has reduced. Please advise.

Rate of weight gain reduces after 3 months. So no need to worry at all if he takes less. Don't measure how much he takes. Weight And height  gain is the important thing.

After three months of age milk intake is reduced naturally and measure the weight gain every week if it is normal then no need to worry about it.

Please inform his birth weight and present weight. Milk intake is not taken into account but the weight is. If the weight is good and consistently increasing, then don't worry. You will know about weight gain from the vaccination charts
