Baby's feeding schedule

amb2486

This is something Ive been looking into all week and I still dont have any answers lol. What kind of feeding schedules do u have for your babies once they start solids? My Lily Marie right now drinks 6 oz every 3 hours and usually sleeps 730 pm to 630 am (yeah I know, pretty awesome) and will be 4 months on feb 6. Right now her schedule is:
6:30 am- 6 oz bottle
9:30 am- 6 oz bottle
12:30 pm- 6 oz bottle with 1 tablespoon cereal fed by spoon
3:30 pm- 6 ox bottle
6:30 pm- 4-6 oz bottle with 1 tablespoon cereal fed by spoon

Im not strict on times, this is just usually what it ends up being. What schedules do u guys use? what about when u start fruits and veggies???

6oz seems like a lot but maybe its just me...naliyah will be 4 months on tuesday and only drinks 4oz bottles when I give her the bottle...every baby is diff though

Yeah shes a piggy and goes 10-12 hours usually sleeping thru the night. and her last bottle of the night, she doesnt always finish

On Friday Kendall's doctor told me to give one jar of food in the mornings & then let her nurse as usual. I suppose you'd do the same. Her doctor is a little nutty though so idk for sure.

Lol I always call naliyah my little piggy piggy when she burps lol...but at least you kind of have her on a schedule...I've been wanting to start one cause I started back school and my days are crazy

@ArmyMommy thanks!

@newmomma13 I just had lily on an every 3 hr schedule for bottles until about 2 weeks ago when i noticed that she started waking up just before 630 every morning. Thats when i decided to take note of times. Since shes been on this routine, i decided to start giving cereal (which she does realy well with)

My son at 6oz at 4months too.

@bettymomma Thanks a bunch. that basically is the same schedule lol. when u say half a jar, is it the real short jars or the regular size or the huge jars (i think they are stage 1, 2 and 3 but not sure)?

amb2486

okay dokey thank you

Schedule? Whats that? I'm a single mom working full time. I'm doing good to take care of her, me and our house. Its rough. Wish I had time for a schedule. She 8 months old and Im still wishing for a full nights sleep!

That's crazy my boy is on the same exact schedule. Haha except he will be 5 months feb 15th we are just doing solids for dinner time so far and add that in around 5, o and he does not have cereal in his bottle I think that's the only difference.

lol @My2Boys i reread what i originally wrote and i meant the cereal as fed by a spoon. oops! I think thats a good idea just doing solids at nighttime ty
