What time does your baby eat breakfast? Before first nap or after?

My LG wakes around 7am and wants a big bottle of milk (210ml) and she’s full up until her nap time around 930am then she naps until 11ish and has breakfast after that nap. I see some people give breakfast much earlier so I tried today before her nap and she wasn’t interested, only after. Just wondering what everyone else’s routines are for breakfast? Does your baby prefer only milk in mornings ?

I give it first x then bottle then nap. But I just feed him when I feed my other kids x

Before. I usually give my lo a feed from me then they get a small breakfast. And if they are hungry in between a wee bit of fruit or another wee feed

My LO wants milk just as he wakes around 7, usually give him about 6oz (180ml). We were doing breakfast around 8am, so and hour after but I've noticed hes more interested closer to 9am... then he'll have a nap about 10:30, sometimes he'll have a bottle before his nap othertimes straight after.

Before - 9am usually for breakfast he has a bottle when waking at 7.30/8. But still demolishes breakfast

Before. wakes 7, breakfast 8, milk 9:30, nap 10ish

I breastfeed my LB when he wakes at 6.30/7 then give breakfast at 7.30/8 and he's up for his nap around 8.30/9. He wakes up from that nap around 10am and then we have lunch around 12 before he naps at 1pm. I'd honestly just do what works for you though. Your baby may just prefer food after her nap. That or you could try halving her milk, give breakfast and then the rest of the milk after?

I think mine has bottles much more frequently than other babies but our general morning routine is up around 6:30, nappy change, bottle (of around 4oz), wash/sterilize/get breakfast ready while he plays, breakfast around 7:30, get myself ready/ playtime, next bottle (around 4oz again) then nap around 9:30/10

Thanks everyone, I think I might try splitting her morning bottle too, 4oz when she wakes, breakfast and then another 4oz before she naps. I’ll trial that tomorrow. If it doesn’t work ill stick to our normal routine of late breakfast
