I'm a little confused as to how much formula a 6 month old is supposed to be getting each day in conjunction with the baby jars. My son eats the jars of food well, but then he doesn't want much of the formula. For those of you in my situation, do you feed your children the bottle right after the baby food? Do you wait some time? Do you give him the bottle of formula before? How do I know if he's getting enough formula? Thanks!

I was told he should be getting about 25 oz. formula a day (3 full bottles)
I never gave it right before or right after, always waited 1-2 hours.

How many jars is he eating a day?

He is eating about a half a jar, or a little more, three times a day.
When I try to give him formula, he will drink maybe 2-3 ounces.
This only started once I began the baby jars. He used to drink 6 ounces every 3.5 - 4 hours before then.
Thanks for your response, Mrs. XYZ
