2 meals and still 5-6 bottles. We do the meals in between bottles so he is not too hungry or too full. He will sometimes drink a bit less from the following bottle if it is close to the meal

I'm currently giving him one dinner, so have removed 1 bottle feed now so he has 4 bottle feeds and one dinner :) my baby suffers with hypoglycaemia and his sugars are still stable doing this and he is finishing his other bottles whereas before giving him purees and feeds his milk intake lowered making his sugars Low

My son is on 21oz of formula plus breast milk when he wants it. By no means is he having meals that would make up for a bottle. 70% of food given to him goes on him, or the floor.

I’ve replaced my girls lunch time bottle with food & she’s having around 4 bottles of 8oz a day!

Giving breakfast, lunch and dinner.
Breastfeeding him in the morning, after his afternoon nap and bedtime

Plus nighttime

Actually no meals, lo didn’t seem ready at 6 months so only just starting now at 6.5. Currently still on first tastes so she doesn’t eat basically anything. Still on 27-30oz formula a day along with tastes of food if she’s up for it

aw right how many ounces does he drink x

I give him breakfast which is has but lunch/ dinner is a hassle it all goes on the floor

Avatar

Breakfast and lunch every day and sometimes an evening snack to ☺️ still has 5 bottles a day varying between 3-5oz at a time, she was never a big milk drinker anyway and she’ll sometimes have the odd bottle over night, she’s eating well but showing no signs of reducing her milk yet x

@Lox I always offer 210mls (7oz). Sometimes he can leave a couple of oz, but usually drinks all of it.

Avatar

My baby has breakfast and dinner and 4 7oz bottles throughout the day. I’ve just started introducing lunch now too as she’s really beginning to love her food x

We do 2/3 meals a day, and 3 bottles of 6/7oz. Dropped night time feeds at 9 weeks

Avatar

Ours is just all over right now as we are trying to wean from the boob also

But she has 3 meals a day and anywhere between 4 and 8 breast feeds/bottles a day (not incl night feeds)

Avatar

2 meals and same amount of bottles as before but, he has started to leave 2 to 3oz on some bottles. Not sure if that's because of the meals or because he has been poorly

Avatar

Food still just for fun and still experimenting so not reduced milk intake at all. Having 2 ‘meals’ but doesn’t usually consume very much

Avatar

2 meals - breakfast (usually porridge and some sort of fruit) and lunch (vegetables and we’re about to add some meat this week). She’s combi fed but mostly breastmilk, so it’s hard to tell how much she’s drinking but I’d say she’s probably dropped 10-15minutes of breastfeeding a day x

Avatar

3 meals surprises me how much he eats and then 3 x 210ml bottles

Avatar

At nearly 6.5m we are only doing one meal. Will switch to 2 at 7m
Breastfeeding so hard to tell really but for sure it dipped a bit

Avatar

We’re just doing tastes really. He’s not interested in real food yet. 6 months and a week

My son is May baby but since weaning he has virtually dropped all but 1 bottle. He has porridge for breakfast and sometimes fruit. He has a pouch thickened up with veggie porridge for dinner or whatever his sister is having so pasta etc and then he will have a snack after and then for tea he has a 12month+ meal or again whatever his sister is having if he can manage it and then he will have pudding and a snack. He only has a bottle before bed but he has 4oz formula and topped up with 4oz of cows milk cos otherwise he won't drink it!!

3 meals, about 4 bottles a day. Dropped night feed around 10 weeks or so but picked up again when we started weaning and now dropped again x

3 meals and bf on demand. She usually bf about 4-5 times in 24h
