8 month old feeding schedule
Hey Ladies,
Can you tell me your feeding schedule for your 8 month old (or around that age.) How much milk do you still give and how many ounces of food and what type. Also, spacing between each feed. Right now I am giving my DS 25 oz of milk still... not sure if that is too much, too little, or just right.
Thanks so much!!!

8 month old feeding schedule
my DS gets about 24 oz of formula and 2 meals. mornign and night. Meals are usually cereal and a fruit or veggie. Though sometimes I swap out the cereal for pasta or yogurt.
I am going to start eggs next week I think.
as far as timing - meals are approx at 9am and 7pm. bottles are when he wants them. he varies so much from day to day and I take the cues from him cause otherwise I would be wasting formula

8:30am: Breakfast (Oatmeal and a jar of fruit)
11:30am: Lunch (Yogurt and a jar of fruit/veggie)
3:00pm: 6oz formula
5:00pm: Dinner (Dinner jar and a jar of veggie)
6:30pm: 6oz formula
I also give some puffs throughout the day.
She loves her food; never been a big fan of big bottles.
