January 2012 Moms

Working BFing moms

What is your schedule now?  My baby just turned 7 months, so we're on the young range for January babies.

7 am - nurse

11 am - 6 oz. BM bottle @ daycare

3 pm - 8 oz. BM bottle @ daycare

6 pm - puree

8 pm - nurse

This is a new change for us as of last week and we essentially dropped his 6 pm nursing meal.  (Previously 6 pm nurse, 9 pm nurse).  I feel like since we dropped the 6 pm nursing session, my supply has gone down a little.  I want to try to work it back in, but then that means 6 pm nurse, 7 pm puree, 8 pm nurse? 

Daycare is about to add in a puree "meal" during the day and she thinks he wants more than 6 oz. in the AM too (but not sure if he will if he's getting a puree too?).

  • Sorry - I see there are a lot of similar eating posts below!  Just curious about moms that BF and pump since it's hard to compare oz. of formula vs. BM.

  • Each of my DDs bm bottles are followed with a puree and / or rice cereal. She usually has 3 bottles at DC, sometimes a 4th. they skip the food after bottle 4. On occasion she's had just puree when we've been out with her, but most of the time a puree is offered after my milk.

    6a ish nurse
    8 ish 5oz bottle then puree
    11 ish 5oz then p
    3 ish again 5oz and food
    sometimes 5pm bottle
    home and nursing around 6p. sometimes we give her puree in the evenings, other times she just nurses.
