Feeding Schedules!

I need some help! Liam's schedule looks like this...

7:30- wake up and nurse

8- breakfast

10- nurse and 4 oz bottle

12- lunch

1ish- nurse and falls asleep.

3 or whenever he wakes up from his nap- nurse

5- 4 oz bottle

6:30 dinner

7:45- 6 to 8 oz from bottle

I feel like I am constantly feeding him and when he turns 1 we will be dropping the nursing sessions (mom is tired of being beat up by baby). Maybe if people tell me this is what their feeding schedule looks like I might feel better. I have no idea what to do when he switches to WCM. I guess maybe some of the bottles will be replaced with a snack. Turning 1 is going to drive me crazy over analyzing everything.

I guess my point is, what does your baby's feeding schedule look like?

Re: Feeding Schedules!

  • Our looks just like this, but replace nursing with bottles. Eating more solids hasn't really made his formula intake less so I'm also freaking out about the WCM transition, he will think I'm starving him!!
      Funny Friendship Ecard: The doctor said I needed to start drinking more wine. Also, I'm calling myself 'the doctor' now.   Funny Confession Ecard: I have a constant internal battle about whether to be classy or give zero fucks.

  • This is our weekend schedule: 

    7:30 - wake up and nurse (normally only 5 mins or so)

    8:30 - breakfast (fruit and oatmeal or yogurt)

    10:30 - nurse and go down for a nap

    12:30ish - lunch (meat and veggies and some finger foods with a sippy of water)

    2:30ish - nurse and down for a nap

    6:00 dinner (more meat and veggies with finger foods and a sippy of water)

    8:00 - bedtime bottle (between 6 and 7 oz) and down to sleep. 

     

     There are some snacks thrown in if he's acting hungry or fussy.  Normally just some cheerios, goldfish, or animal crackers.

    It is good to hear someone is on the same page as me... When I was talking to my pedi at his 9 month appointment she was saying he should only drink 16 oz of WCM a day. That is a major decrease... I also fear getting rid of his night time bottle.
