what time to feed lunch to a 13 month old?
« on: July 19, 2012, 17:51:56 pm »
Hello sorry if this is in the wrong place, I wasn't sure where it was best to go!
I just had a query rabout when it is best to feed my LO lunch once they are down to 1 nap. She is 13 months.
She wakes approx 7am and has breakfast 9am. If her 1 nap is from 11.30 for approx 2.5 hours ( once we get there!) is it best to give lunch after nap or a brunch to keep her going beforehand?
any ideas appreciated thank you....

Feeding a 13 month old

I'd make your own thread but in answer to your question, personally I'd move breakfast earlier and have lunch at 11 and a snack at at 2 but then I'm an early morning person.  As long as it doesn't affect your LO's sleep then you could have breakfast at 9 and lunch at 2.  IMO I'd be guided by your child and what works for you.

I always gave DS lunch after his nap until he was able to stay up until midday, then we switched lunch to 11.30am.

Now he's ok with lunch anywhere from 11.30 - 12.15 and goes down at about 12.30pm for a 2 hour nap.
