LO is 6.5 months old.

Eats 5 bottles a day and 2-3 times a day for solids.

20-22 oz of half pumped breast milk and half formula.

She eats a mix of the 1st stage purred foods. 1 fruit in the morning and one veggie and one fruit at night. She doesn't care for cereal.

I'm done breastfeeding.

7:00 a.m. - 6 oz. formula, 3-4 ounces solids

10:00 a.m. - 6 ounces formula

1:00 p.m. - 6 oz. formula

5:00 p.m. - 3-4 ounces solids, a little more formula if super hungry

7:00 p.m. - bedtime bottle - 6 ounces formula

This varies slightly, sometimes the bottles are every 4 hours instead of every 3 hours, depends on how hungry he is and his nap schedule. But this is a typical day.

It varies, but DD has 3-4 bottles at daycare and nurses 3-4 times at home. So 6-8 breastmilk feedings per day. She eats dinner with us most nights and she eats what we eat (unless it's totally inappropriate). She sometimes eats breakfast and/or lunch with us on the weekends

Bottles (or breastfeeding/EPing)...

How often? About 7 times a day - every 3 hours during the day and once at night. 4 of those are bottles if he's at daycare. Otherwise it's nursing.

How much? No idea how much he takes from the breast, but he gets 4oz in his bottle.

Formula or breastmilk? BM

Solids...

How often? 3 times a day

How much? I don't measure, it just depends on what we're having. We do BLW so he eats what we eat. Or I give him what we eat, and he chooses how much he wants.

What type? BLW - he eats just about everything we do.

What time? breakfast around 7, lunch around 11, dinner around 6.

Lara0802 · June 2012

All bottles are BM, I EP.

7 am: 5-6 oz. bottle plus 2 Tbsp oatmeal with some fruit, either 1-2 Tbsp blueberries, or 1/3 banana, etc.

Between 11 am - 12 pm, 5-6 oz bottle. Sometimes a little later.

Around 2 pm, lunch. If at daycare, usually a container of babyfood, if at home, various foods, but usually includes a veggie and some fruit, along with cheese or yogurt.

Sometimes she'll get a little snack at some point during the day. Usually a baby mum mum, or some puffs, or even a graham cracker.

Between 4 pm - 5 pm, 5-6 oz bottle.

6 pm - dinner. Usually eats what we're eating. But, can depend on what we'r e having. Last night she had some grapes, some string cheese, some broccoli and some chicken.

7:30ish, bedtime bottle. Usually 7-8 oz.

gracefulruby33 · June 2012

7am: Bottle #1- 8 oz.

8am: Nap

11am: Bottle #2- 8 oz.

1pm: Nap

3pm: Bottle #3- 8oz.

5:30pm: Solid- typically 2 oz.- I try to make it a vegetable of some kind, but not too picky here. She's had applesauce lately.

7pm: Bottle #4- 8 oz.

7:30pm: Bed, STTN until 6-6:30am

**If I give DD a second solid, like today, I give it to her before bottle #2 (today she had yobaby blueberry yogurt). I have also been giving her mum mums as a snack if we're out running errands in the afternoon.

DawnJM25 · June 2012

DD gets six 6 oz. bottles per day, but depending on how much she eats at meals she doesn't always finish the whole bottle. We have only been doing solids twice a day, and she has never liked purees so we do mostly finger foods except she does like Yobaby yogurt. For breakfast we do a fruit like 1/2 banana/peach/mandarin oranges, etc., with about 1/2 carton of yobaby, whole wheat toast, cheerios, puffs/mum-mum crackers. For dinner we usually do roasted veggies, whole wheat noodles, 1/2 string cheese, beans, etc. We still haven't done meat or eggs. I feel like she's probably not getting enough solids, but we have our 9mo appt. next week so I'll talk to the pedi then.

bridein08 · June 2012

We breastfeed.... DS is eating about every 1.5 to 2 hours during the day and every 2 hours at night. We recently introduced finger foods at 6 months and he is eating 1-2 times daily- we usually do a container of yogurt (fed by me, which is why I dont say we do BLW... Ds has maxed out my supply so I am trying to get more calories into him, which I can really only do this way), and a couple of other finger foods.

Breakfast today I did a container of yogurt, dinner we did yogurt, whole grain toast (a whole piece) , sweet potato fries (3 or 4), and a couple steamed carrot sticks.
