Daily Meal/Snack Routines

Help! Please can you share what your daily meal/snack routines look like - how much you give and at what times. I feel a bit like it’s hit and miss each day so would love to see what everyone else is doing. I’m also not sure how much formula I should be giving if I’m still breastfeeding two feeds a day? I’ve EBF’d until now but need flexibility with work but a bit flummoxed how to make it work without over feeding. Thank you so much in advance!

0800 breakfast 1 cup of cows milk before nap 1200 lunch 1500 snack (only if he is hungry, doesn’t always ask for one) 1730 dinner 1 cup of cows milk before bed All rough times but this is generally what he does 🙂

@Freya thanks this is really helpful, what time does your LO wake and go to bed?

No worries, he wakes about half 7ish, and goes to bed at 6ish!

Oh perfect that’s similar to my LO. Although throws in the odd 5.30am and 6.30am wake up to keep us on our toes 😂🤦🏼‍♀️

Haha he doesn’t do that luckily but my toddler wakes up at 5am so I am up way too early anyway 😂

Wakes at around 7am and has breast feed then breakfast which is usually weetabix or ready brek. Then has a snack around 10am with water in his sippy cup. Nap about 10.30 for an hour.. Then lunch at 12ish with water again. snack at 3ish with a bottle of formula followed by second nap. Tea time is 5ish then he has a bottle of formula around 7 then bed. He wakes in the night still and has breastfeed whenever throughout the night. This isn't always the routine but roughly.xx

@Samantha thank you so much! This is great. I’m breastfeeding in the morning and evening with formula in between as well. Have you had any issue with you LO going from one to the other?

He took to bottle better than I thought but he does still refuse some of them or will have like 1 ounce then not want anymore.. xx
