at 10 months (just yesterday
) this is Olivia's routine:
wake up time averages 6:30
7ish breakfast
8:30 bottle
9/9:15 down for nap
wakes either 45min later or sometimes does 1- 1.5 hrs
11/11:30 lunch
12:30/12:45 bottle
1:15 down for nap - generally sleeps 1:30-3pm but can go as long as 2.25 hrs and can start as late as 2pm
5/5:30 dinner
6:30 first offer bottle
6:45 or so bath
7:15 finish bottle and down for bed before 7:30
her first 2 bottles are 8oz offered and she takes anywhere from 6 1/2 - 8 oz. her bedtime bottle is actually extra big as after dropping Df and then to 3 bottles she was crying out for more 20 min afetr going to bed so now we offer her 8 oz before her bath and she takes anwhere from 3-6oz and then we add an extra 2-3 oz so she takes in total anywhere from 9-10 1/2 oz
she has always (since day 1) fed the most at her bedtime feed (she eats very little for breakfast regardless of how much she drinks the night before)
In Australia the recommendation is that by 9 mo you make the switch to solids first and then milk and also the goal is a minimum of 21oz/day of formula or BM.
