Am i feeding her too much? is that even possible?

She has.

7am Milk 8oz
10am toast and porridge or just porridge but twice as much (iykwim)
12 stage 2 jar and a stage 1 pudding jar
3 - 8oz milk and a packet of baby crisps
6 stage 1 jar and a stage 1 pudding and 5oz of milk
7:30 8oz of goodnight milk

sometimes she doesnt go to sleep then sometimes she does, if not another 8oz milk 1-2 hours after

I personally don't think it's possible to overfeed them at this stage as long as you don't try to persuade them to take anymore if they've given signals that their finished. I don't agree with trying to get them to finish the jar etc, when they're full they're full. I'd keep just giving her what she wants, when she's full she'll stop!

Hiya

Your feeding schedule is almost identical to mine except Chloe won't finish a whole jar of stage 2, she wil only have half, she finishes the stage 1 jars then at about 3.00 she only has 7 oz milk and no snack but apart from that were about the same x

If she wants it, and it's good stuff you're giving her, then I reckon it's fine. Just because that might be too much for some other LOs doesn't mean it's too much for Ava. I mean, the amount of milk Ruby drinks, some LOs prob wouldn't get through in 3 days but it's right for her!
