If you have weaned, what is your meal/snack schedule?

I'm trying to figure out snacks.  Does she really need 2 snacks a day?  Do you just watch for signs that they are hungry or do it on a schedule?

  • I only do one snack a day right now. DS will have breakfast and then play and then nap for about 1-2hrs. When he gets up I usually give him lunch and then a snack in the afternoon and then dinner.

  • We try to get in 2 snacks but with nap schedules we are not always successful.  We have not completely weaned, but here is our schedule:

    7am - nurse
    9am - breakfast with milk offering - at daycare
    10:30am - snack with milk
    noon - lunch with milk
    2:30pm - snack with milk
    5pm - dinner with milk
    7pm - nurse - at home

    We are having problems getting DD to drink milk - although we had a breakthrough last week - which is why we offer her milk at every meal. She has not been drinking it though.  Our pedi said not to fill her up with too much water.  Once she gets onto milk regularly, I will replace the snack milks with water.

  • We only do one snack, in the afternoon.

    7:30-wake & cup of milk
    8/8:30-breakfast
    9:30-11/11:30-nap
    11:45/12-lunch
    Sometime between 1:00 & 2:00-cup of milk
    2:30/3-nap
    Sometime between 3 and 4, when she wakes up-snack
    5:30/6-dinner
    7:45-milk, then bed
