1 Red blood cell indices. 2  There are three red blood cell indices: mean corpuscular volume (MCV), mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH), and mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC). 3  They are measured by a machine, and their values come from other measurements in a CBC.

Several studies have measured breastmilk intake for babies between 12 and 24 months and found typical amounts to be 14-19 oz per day (400-550 mL per day). Studies looking at breastmilk intake between 24 and 36 months have found typical amounts to be 10-12 oz per day (300-360 mL per day).
At around 6 months of age, the average baby will be drinking 24 to 32 ounces of formula or breast milk per day. Instead of increasing that intake, babies need to supplement it with solid foods. By 8 months of age, your baby should be eating solid foods a few times per day. Mealtime is the time to practice feeding skills, advance oral motor development, take in essential nutrients and add more calories for appropriate weight gain.
