How much formula when weaning

I just starting weaning my 19 week old baby a few days ago, the first and second day he just had a couple of spoons of baby rice, today is the third day and I'm giving him pureed carrot for lunch. Just wondering how much formula he should be drinking a day in the early stages of weaning and how much once he's eating one or two meals a day? Also should he have his bottle before or after food?

When i 1st started i offerd the same oz as allways at each feed as the the start babys dont know food is to fill there bellys so they only take a few spoons and get bord as it is just a game to them. At 1st offer the milk 1st and about 1/2 throw befor baby is full give the food then when baby is eating good give the food then milk. at 6 months babys should still be getting 20+oz a dayi think it is 25+oz befor 6months but not 100% on that
