two topics: third meal & naps/sleep

1. When did you introduce a third meal of solids?  (Right now DS has two solids meals and a "snack" in the afternoon at daycare.  I am thinking it's time to add it in.)

2. What time does your LO get up for the day? Bed time? And how many naps/how long? (My son sleeps 630PM-530AM, two naps, each averaging an hour in length)

Thanks!

I started working in the third meal at 8.5 months and by 9.5 months, LO was consistently eating a good amount 3 times a day. Right now he sleeps 7:30 to 6:30ish and 2 naps a day, each between an hour to two hours long. Morning nap is usually always around an hour long, and afternoon nap is a bit longer, like hour and a half on average.

We introduced lunch around 9 months. It has taken a few weeks for her to consistenly want to eat at that time, but now she expects it. Usually bedtime is 8-8:30pm and she sleeps until 6-6:30am. She takes two naps. Her morning naps is generally 2-3hrs, and her afternoon nap is 1-2hrs.
