8 month old schedule change!!

Mrs._Nelson19

My son is 8 months and 2 weeks and he just recently decided he doesn't want to take two naps a day anymore. Which I knew was coming, the issue I am having is now his one nap is from about 11:30-1:30, give or take a few minutes or so. Which is when I use to feed him lunch. So do I change the feeding schedule to be sure he gets those 3 solid food meals a day or do I just skip lunch and keep breakfast and dinner on the same schedule they have been since he was 4 month old? Doctor said 2-3 meals a day at this point and bottles as he desires.

Thanks that sounds like a great idea. He is sleeping through the night and gets up at 8. He will sometimes take two naps but it's either two short naps or one long. I am a stay at home mom so I let him kind of nap when he needs. Thanks for the reply!

My LO usually takes a nap from 11:30ish to 2-ish. Sometimes he will take a cat nap in the morning but it's never more than half an hour. We do lunch around 11:00 and I nurse him again when he wakes up.
