How much should she be eating??

Hi! I’m a ftm and I am so lost on how much my daughter (9.5 months) should be eating? I’m a little on the spectrum and schedules are my best friend but now that she’s starting solids her schedule is changing and I have no idea what her new schedule should be like… how many bottles how much solids? My husband says we are over feeding her; but idk..
Here’s her schedule right now:
7:30a wake/eat 6-8 oz
9 breakfast
9:30-11 nap
11:30 eat 4-6 oz
1 maybe a snack
3:30 eat 6 oz
4:30-6 nap
6:30 bath and story
7:30 eat 8 oz
8 bedtime
10:30-11 eat 4 oz (but our pediatrician said we can cut this out and only offer 4 bottles when we start offering two meals a day but we have to increase those bottles and offer a second and possibly third meal a day)
I tried googling it and it’s all mixed responses.. help a girl out!

Not sure about bottles bc I’m EBF but my baby is about to be 9 months and he has breakfast, lunch, dinner. He breastfeeds every wake window, and sometimes a double feed depending on him. Mostly purées but we have started giving him our food too so he can learn how to chew food and he has gotten really good at it. But he has slowly started to stop feeding so much at night which I love!

Men gaze?

Anyone else’s husband very vocal about not liking the “plastic” look? Like everytime he sees a girl with lip injections or heavy makeup up he’s just like “ I don’t know how people like that. It’s not attractive to have all that crap going on”. But like all these of models and junk are all plastic 😅 he dosnt do any of that but I know ALOT of men do. Like I believe him but sometimes I wish I could look more like some of them because my lips are thin and after kids my boobs are saggy but he insists that he loves my body the way it is. Idk just thinking

I don’t like my toddler.

My little one was a easy baby. So loving. Even entering toddlerhood the big feelings moments were not nearly as horrible as they are now. She listens well and we hardly have to repeat ourselves until she says okay mommy or daddy. This past week her behavior has been horrible. She is giving me nasty looks when I am smiling at her. She crosses her arms at me. She screams at the top of her lungs saying go away, leave me alone, no, etc. We have her in preschool half time and her teachers have no complaints, she is always very passive and friendly. To top it off, she hits me so much. She will dig her nails into my arms and swing her arms and hit me. She will also use her head to try to hit me when I hold her arms at her side to try to stop the hitting. We never spank her back and we are firm with her on timeouts but even that she will fight so hard whereas before she would go and sit down on timeout no issues. She is turning 3 in the summer. I’m at a loss as to why she is acting so out of the ordinary. I want to chalk it up to be developmentally normal but there are zero sweet moments with her now. Even when she sits with me she will look at me and clench her jaw and push her head really hard into me or only want her dad. I just want to cry cuz I feel guilty for feeling like I don’t like her at all. I’ll always love her but it’s like the sweet kind cuddly girl she was has been possessed by this feral mean abusive toddler. Please help me, am I alone in this? Are there any other moms going through this because for some reason when I talk about this with other moms they are all shocked that she knows to hit and thinking that we showed her the hitting. Why the hell would I expose her to hitting?! I only have one mom friend who said her child also hits and it was not like she was taught that, kids just do that right? I’m at a loss.

Anyone else’s baby always cry when held by a particular person?

Posting this because I’m wondering if it happens to anyone else, my 4 month old son always cries like he’s in pain when my Dad holds him!! I feel so bad for my Dad when it happens and it puts me in an awkward position because I wanna grab him back but don’t wanna make out like my Dad doesn’t know what he’s doing 🫣 To be fair baby boy has only met my Dad like 3-4 times (the first time was at about 2 months) so that’s probably something to do with it, and also my Dad and I aren’t very close so I think he picks up on my feelings around him. Still strange though as he’s such a content baby and is usually fine meeting and being held by new people!

Holiday travel

What are you supposed to do with coach transfers on holiday? Do you take a car seat? Do they provide one? Do you have them on your lap?
