A. hi dear Babies should always be fed on demand, when they are calm but showing feeding cues. How much and how often to give formula to your baby. Age Number of feedings/day Volume of formula/feed 5 - 6 months 5 - 6 150 - 210 mL (5 - 7 oz) 6 - 9 months 4 - 5 180 - 210 mL (6 - 7 oz) 9 - 12 months 3 - 4 180 - 240 mL (6 - 8 oz)
