My son is 11 months old but was 2 months prem but you would not believe it if you looked at him. He is 22.5 pounds. The problem I am finding is that he seems to have cut his milk down a lot in the past few weeks, but he wants to eat solids, he eats loads but would never refuse food when it is on offer, but his milk intake had gone down a lot.
I could understand that he might be full up and not wanting his bottle but the first thing in the morning he really looks like he wants it and has about 4 oz and they does not want anymore but will then eat breakfast later on.
He routine is like this
7.00 - 7.30 - bottle 7oz but only taking 4oz
8.45 -9.00 - Breakfast, half a slice of toast and one weetabix with 4oz of milk
9.4- 10.00 back to bed
10.45 wake up
12.00 Lunch, which might be something like a beef stew, or chicken casserole 6 tablespoons and then four tablespoons of fruit and a rice cake and little bits or cheese or something and some water
1.00 - sleep
3.00 wake up (he was having a bottle but started not really wanting any so the past week have got rid of it)
4.30 - tea, which might be a vegetables and potatoes, or pasta and a sauce or something which again is about 6 tablespoons then a yoghurt and a small amount of water.
6.30 - 7oz bottle but seems to only want to have about 4oz
Last night I just gave him a small amount of food and a couple of fingers of cheese spread on toast and a yoghurt and he still only wanted 4 oz. when you show him the milk he gets really excited and drinks it quickly but then pulls away and you try to put it in his mouth and he pulls away.
