Feeding routine

What does everyone’s food/milk routine look like? Usually we do 6am - wake up & bottle (8) 8am - breakfast 10am - snack 12pm - lunch 1.30 - bottle (5) 3 - snack 5.30 - dinner 7 - bottle (8) Recently he’s been waking up for a bottle again around 3am so I’m wondering whether to drop the first morning bottle? 3 meals & 2 snacks a day with 4 bottles seems excessive but my partner is just like “if he needs it then give it him” 🤣🤣

We do with my 10 month old: 7am wake up 7:30am breakfast and 4oz bottle 11:30/12 lunch and 4oz bottle 4:30pm tea and 4oz bottle 7:15pm 6oz bottle So 3 meals and 4 bottles. I don’t give him any snacks because he doesn’t ‘ask’ for any 🤷🏼‍♀️ x

We cut our little one down to 3 bottles as trying to fit in 4 bottles, 3 meals and naps was hard work but she's been recently waking up for a bottle so I think we may have to try go back onto 4 and see! I do agree with your partner, if they're hungry, they're hungry xx

🤔 my LO has started as well to sometimes wake up for a bottle at night. Seems to be a common thing then. I thought of a growing spurts.

@Becka I don’t know if the night feed is more of a comfort thing but it seems to be the only way to settle him 🤣 he used to have 8oz when he woke up but since the night feeding he’ll wake up later & only drink maybe 3/4 which is why I’m wondering whether to skip straight to breakfast! X

@Merion I think so too!

@Susannah ours would eat all day if he could 🤣 he doesn’t seem as bothered about milk in the day now but then he’s needing this extra one at night!
