When can I replaced a bottle feeding with food?

DS has been an eating monster and I'm having a hard time keeping up with pumping.  He usually eats breakfast, lunch, and dinner purees along with his 28-30 ozs of breast milk daily.  When do they start really getting nutrition from what they eat so I can give swap out a bottle for some food while I am at work?

    Babies will start to self wean (cutting / reducing the amount of their feedings)around 10-12 months, sometimes. Milk needs to be their primary source of nutrition for at least 1 year.
