HI DD2 is 9 months old next week and has been on 4 bottles a day (6,10,2,6) she's now weaning brilliantly and has started to show a decrease in her milk intake as her solid intake has increased. I was just wondering what feed you dropped first, I think with DD1 it was the 10 am one, replacing this with snack and then lunch at 11.30/12 but I can't remember so just after a bit of advice really!  :)

daily routine would  roughly be

6- wake and 7oz bottle
7- breakfast (solids)
10- snack (solids)
11.30/12 lunch- solids
2- bottle 7 0z
3- snack (solids)
5- tea with family (solids)
6/7 bedtime bottle

I thought I'd replied to you from my phone - just noticed it hadn't posted for some reason, sorry about that!

The routine you have posted here is pretty much exactly what we did with my DD except she didn't have much of a snack after her nap but her evening meal was earlier. It's quite a common routine when you drop to 3 bottles.
