7am - wake and bf
8am - breakfast - porridge
9am - usually a nap
10.30am - bf
11.30am - lunch - usually toast based, cheese on toast etc
12.30pm - nap
2.30pm - bf
5pm - short bf
5.30pm - dinner - whatever we're having or fingerfoods if I'm not eating with her
7pm - bf and bed

All bottle amounts and times are approx, it can vary...

7am - 7oz
11am- 7oz
12 noon - offer her bit of my lunch, cheese on toast, fruit etc. 99% of it gets spat out
3pm - 7oz
4pm - snack, fruit, yoghurt, hoummous on rice cakes, toast etc. Again, she doesn't actually eat much, if any
7pm - 7oz
11pm dreamfeed - sometimes refuses, sometimes takes 9oz!

So you can see, Ruby isn't eating any solids to speak of yet, and is fine....I'm sure whatever you're doing is absolutely fine too.

Ours is fairly similar to Claires:

8am - get up
9am - 8oz
1pm - lunch - bit of whatever I am having
2pm - 8oz
6pm - dinner - whatever we are having
7pm - 8oz - bedtime
11pm - 8oz
4am - 8oz

All the times are approximate as they are different every day. She doesn't actually swallow much food yet, hardly anything.

Maisies goes like this..

6am - bottle.
8.30am - breakfast and remainder of formula which is usually about 5oz.
12.00pm - toast and a yoghurt ( she only has a few spoons)
2.30pm - bottle
5pm - half a jar of food.
6.30pm bottle before bed.

Does that sound ok??

How many oz's is she getting in total? I was reading the other night and apparently at 6months they should be getting around 30ozs of milk a day

I offer her 8oz at each bottle, it differs on how much she takes each time x

sapphire20 · Nov 18th, 2009, 14:55 PM

7am - 8oz
10am - Porridge
12pm - 7oz
1pm - Toast (was aswell fruit but refusing savoury so have cut this out)
3pm - offers a 7oz but sometimes takes 5 sometimes refuses
4pm - Purees, either turnip, carrots etc etc
6.30 - 7oz & bed

I asked HV how much milk they needed and she said 18 - 21oz.
