Hello! What is everyone else’s LOs eating per day? I’m interested to see what everyone else is having as I want to make sure my LO is having enough! My schedule below (7 1/2 months old):

-8oz bottle (wake up)
-Breakfast
-8oz Bottle (lunch time)
-Afternoon Snack
-Tea & Pudding
-8oz (bedtime bottle)

We are currently on two meals a day and around 24oz in total. Little snacks offered in between if LO seems interested.

Each baby will vary what they want and will let you know if hungry. My LO is turning 8 months on 11th Sept.

Early morning bottle (7oz)
Morning Bottle (7oz) or breakfast (porridge mostly- oats, rice, semolina etc)
Lunch (Veg mostly, sometimes with fish or chicken or cheese, has up to 20tsp depending on thickness/consistency)
Afternoon bottle 1 (4oz)
Afternoon bottle 2 (7oz)
Afternoon Snack ( Fruit mostly)
Dinner ( Veg mostly)
Early night Bottle ( 4oz)
Early night Snack (Fruit mostly)
Night bottle before bed (7oz)

He is teething so this varies. Other snacks include Farley biscuits, melty veg/crisps, pudding, yogurt etc

We do 4 bottles a day first 3 7oz and bedtime bottle 8oz. He has tea around half 4 - half 5 depending on naps. Trying to work out how to introduce breakfast into routine without over feeding him 😳

8 month old boy

7am-8oz bottle
8am- breakfast (usually porridge & fruit)
11am-8oz bottle

anytime between 12-1.30 i offer him lunch (today he had scrambled eggs on toast and a biscotti)
3pm-8oz bottle

5pm (ish) he gets tea- something like pasta, chicken & veg, cottage pie and he has some yogurt afterwards

7/7.30- 8oz bottle before bed

if he gets snacks it's things like melty puffs, wafers, soft biscottis, fresh fruit.

he is a big boy, and we're mainly BLW so a lot still ends up on the floor😂

Thank you everyone for your responses to far! It’s really interesting to see what everyone is doing☺️ My LO cut out his tea time bottle which is why we have tea and a pudding. I might start introducing a small lunch too with veg or fruit ect. It’s all a learning curve for us too isn’t it!

Timings during the day vary!
Had him on 8oz bottles but he wasnt interested in weaning so HV reccomend reducing milk a bit and it has helped, plan to drop to 6oz bottles and introduce a dinner in a few weeks time x

Night feeds of bf 1 or 2 times also he will bf whenever he likes throughout the day.
He has the 3oz bottles throughout the day as he lost weight so have been advised to do this to maintain his centile also under dietician as suspected CMPA so we are dairy free at the moment 😊 my boy loves his food and shouts at me if he can see it and I haven’t given it yet 😂
