Kieran eats 3 meals a day and has 4 nursings. The schedule tends to go something like this:

8:30- nurse
9:30/10:00- 2 tbs of oatmeal mixed with 2 oz. of a fruit or veggie
12:00- nurse
2:00- 2 oz. fruit or veggie
4:00- nurse
6:30- 2 tbs oatmeal with 2 oz. fruit or veggie
8:30- nurse
9:00- sleep

I can do 6 months and a week, lol

8am 8 oz bottle of good ol' formula straight from the plastic box breast, lol

12pm 4oz bottle but I make 6 and occasionally he drinks more fruit or veggie- stage 2 or 1-2 stage 1s b/c they're smaller and I just have some left. We use Earth's Best and Gerber Organic and are well into the stage 2s but haven't touched anything berries or meats.

3:30ish 6-8oz bottle

7ish- another 4 oz or so although again I make 6 and then another fruit or veggie (whichever I didn't do that morning or sometimes a mixed jar)

9:30 8oz "cookie bottle" which is formula w/ 2 plasmon cookies that melt in there. They help
him sleep and poo. He goes to bed like 5 minutes after he's done. Well, usually, lol.

THanks ladies. Since starting solids I'm having a hard time getting DD to nurse/take a bottle. I'm not sure how many oz is average at this age?

We don't have a strict schedule with bottles (of BM) and nursing. She gets 3 meals a day besides milk.

8-9-jar of fruit, cereal and sometimes yogurt
12:30-1:30-jar of fruit or veggies
6:30-jar of veggies, sometimes also a jar of fruit, cereal.

She nurses or gets bottles of BM on demand the rest of the day.
