So my daughter will be 7 months on Sunday and she only eats roughly 18-20 ounces a day (from midnight to midnight) she eats 4oz every 4-5 hours. The doctor doesn't seem concerned because she's still doing great with her weight gains but it concerns me that she's not getting enough to keep her hydratedz

If your doctor is concerned then you shouldn't be try upping the bottle an oz every week or so and see if it works. You can also try half juice half water to keep your LO hydrated if you don't feel they are.

Look at wet and dirty diapers. Babies should have so many a day, I don't know how old your little is, but check Google to see.

my daughter has been like that since about 7 months because she would rather eat real food lol. she's gaining fine and I offer water with meals. now at 9 months she has a morning 3 to 4 ounces, mid day 4 to 5 ounces, and a bed time bottle which is 5 to 7 ounces. her pediatrician said that was OK. she just won't drink more then that because she's a food lover lol...I also make sure to offer her bottle before any meals.

This also happened with mine and I was told that he wasn't as hungry because of his teething. Honestly if your doctors not concerned I wouldn't worry about it. Idk what form of feeding you do but baby's tend to weigh less when bf also. If you're worried about her dehydrating give her water and just a tiny bit of flavoring in it so she'll drink it but don't exceed 4oz a day because water can poison babies if they have too much
