What's your baby's schedule? I'm having a hard time figuring out how the solids and babys schedule works out. Not sure if I'm doing this right..What do you think?
7am- Milk 8 ounces
9am-Prune Juice
11am-Solids w/ Milk
2pm-Milk
5pm- Dinner
7pm-Milk-Bed.
Please help as a first time mom i'm feeling confused. Thanks!
Re: Baby's full day Schedule
LO generally is on this "schedule"...all times are approx though. We just go with baby's needs...
6-6:30 BF
9:00 BF
11:30 BF
12:00 veggies/fruit (between 1-2 oz)
2:30 BF
5:00 BF
5:15-5:30 cereal with fruit (2-3 oz)
6-6:30 BF then bed
He usually wakes around 10 then again around 3 to feed then goes back to sleep.
How old is your LO? Until they are about 9 months of age you should always offer BM or formula first followed by solids. You can let about 30 minutes lapse in between but I would think 3 hours is a little too much time between his last feed and solids. Also, when you start solids, your LO's intake of formula/BM should not decrease. If it has then you are probably giving too much solid food. There are helpful charts on the wholesomebabyfood.com web site to help guide you.
Baby is 5 months old. I do give her, milk before solids. I don't give her prune juice everyday but I do every other day because she is very constipated. Thank you for sharing your schedules with me.
