My DD is 11 months tomorrow, and this week she's practically boycotting her formula (except in the middle of the night!) and her eating is all over the place!
Just curious what a typical day of eating (formula/breastmilk & solids) looks like for your LOs?
Re: How much & what is your LO eating?
Today was a light day solids-wise for her because she has a little cold:
Nurse
Breakfast: 1/2 mango, 1 banana pancake, a serving of yogurt melts
Nurse
Lunch: 1/2 avocado/egg yolk/tuna sandwich (which she mostly ate the filling and threw the bread on the floor) and 1/2 pear
Nurse
Nurse
Dinner: 1/2 piece of cheeseburger pie, 1/2 tomato, maybe 1/4 c green beans?
Nurse
She usually nurses 4-5x a day and normally she'll eat whole pieces of fruit with one meal, not half, a whole sandwich, 2 pancakes vs 1, etc. Dinner was the only meal she really ate normal portions (for her)
Today she had:
Breakfast: 2 Tbsp oatmeal and cut- up pears
6 oz Bottle
Lunch: Cucumber melon yogurt and some shredded cheese
6 oz Bottle
Snack: Puffs
6 oz Bottle
Dinner: Shredded chicken and baby carrots
6 oz Bottle
early AM nurse (4-5 am) OR get pumped milk in a cup upon waking ~7 am.
eat me out of house and home for breakfast ~sometime between 7 and 8:30 am
nurse before first nap ~sometime between 9 and 10 am
eat me out of house and home for lunch ~sometime between 11:30 and 1:30
nurse before second nap ~sometime between 1 and 3:30 pm
snack ~4:30 pm
eat me out of house and home for dinner ~6 pm
pumped milk before bed ~7:30 pm
Ha, that's funny. My DD is starting to make me feel that way, too! Thanks everyone!
It's crazy. My DD was completely opposite. She still only eats exactly enough to stay alive.
Breakfast - 2 Tbsp multigrain baby cereal, two bites of pureed fruit, two small bits of banana, handful of Cheerios
Lunch - 2 bites of pureed fruit or veggie, handful of puffed rice cereal, rejects all other finger foods (bits of baked apple, peas, egg yolk, avocado, etc)
Snack - Mum Mum
Dinner - 2 Tbsp multigrain baby cereal, two bites of pureed vegetable, handful of Cheerios, sucks on a teething biscuit, rejects all other finger foods
This is the past week or so. She was doing better with her pureed fruits & veggies (maybe eating 1/2 a stage 2 jar) and eating more finger foods (like 5-10 bite-sized pieces).
She nurses about seven times a day.
ETA: She isn't allowed dairy yet because she may have an allergy, so that has limited our food options.
