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).
Then there are the concrete, in your face, cash today costs. Once a baby ends up at one or two months of age, they consume on a daily basis about 30 oz of either breastmilk, (Ding, ding, ding, free!) or formula. Letâs add that up. Formula costs about .11 cents per oz on average. If you are worried about the nutritive benefits your child is not receiving due to formula feeding, you might reach for the more expensive cans that have substances added to âenhanceâ your babyâs IQ, physical coordination, digestion, etcâ¦but these have not been proven to actually do the things they say they will.
