A. hi dear Formula or breastmilk is the most important ingredient in a 5-month-old's diet. According to Infant Nutrition and Feeding, babies should get five or more nursing sessions per day or 26 to 39 ounces (oz) of iron-fortified formula. Some babies nurse more during growth spurts or when they do not feel well.
