Thanks heaps...your advice certainly has helped and I think it is time to move to 3 bottles per day. I'm sick of chasing him around for half an hour trying to get him to drink his bottles and it is such a waste when he doesn't drink them and they get poured down the sink. If we do a 7-7pm routine does this seem reasonable?

6:45am wake up
7am bottle 240ml
8am solids
9:15/30 nap (1-1.5hrs)
11:30am lunch solids
1pm bottle 240ml
2:30pm nap (1-1.5hrs)
4pm snack
5:30/6 solids
6:30 bath etc
7pm bottle and bed

Is this ok?

Looks great! Very similar to what we do and I really like it. I know what you mean about chasing him around to give his bottle...and then having to throw it away! Good luck with the new routine!

Thank you all.  Your schedules are very helpful.  We are still struggling with the 2nd and 3rd bottle every day.  I am going to keep trying for a while as the consensus is that he really needs 4 feeds still.  We will see how things go!
