My DS just turned 7 months old. He has been on solids one time a day since 4 months old. then at 6 months we increased to 2 times a day. I am now ready to increase to 3. I am having a problem getting him to eat the meals lately. Before he loved eating and got very excited and at all the food I gave him.....I am still BF but I work FT so I pump and give him 2 bottles of expressed milk 5.5oz each. Here is his feeding schedule. He just seems not interested in the solids anymore and gets really fussy about 1/2 way through the feeding and I have to stop.
7:00 wake and BF
8:00 breakfast (1 jar of fruit)
sleep 10:00-12:00
12:45 5.5oz BM
1:45 lunch (1 jar of veggies)
sleep 3:00-4:30/5:00
5:15 5.5 oz 1/2 BM and 1/2 formula
6:15 dinner (1 jar veggie and 1 starch)
bath and then top off bottle around 7:30
BT at 8pm
This is a rough outline, it almost never is the same, except the times he eats, his naps are anywhere from 1-2hrs and he never wakes up at the same time or goes to bed at the same time. He also wakes usually one time at night to eat, if I dont feed him he EWs due to hunger.
Any feedback you have would be greatly appreciated!!!
