Solids before Bottle
« on: February 10, 2006, 21:14:25 pm »
Just wondering when you moved your babies meals around so they have their solids before bottle and how long do you wait in between? My DD has her lunch and dinner before for her bottle but has always had her bottle before her breakfast. However lately she isn't interested in her bottle first thing. This is how thing look at the moment:

7am - Bottle
8am - Breakfast
12pm - Lunch
12.30/1pm - Bottle
4.30/5pm - Dinner
6.30pm - Bottle

When Rose was just having small amounts of food I gave her her bottle after her spoonfuls of solid food. Once she started to up her solid food I changed the routine and she now has a bootle (6oz) when she wakes, breakfast at 8:30, a bottle (5oz) before her nap at 11am, her lunch at 1pm, another bottle (5oz) at 3pm before her nap, her evening meal at 5:30pm and her bedtime bottle (7oz) at 7pm. Seems to work a treat. She started to be weaned onto solids at 20 weeks and she's now 8 and a half months. I've done everything gradually with Rose as I don't want to 'shock' her system. HTH xx

I always gave solids before milk as it really helped with the reflux; now we are on three botttles a day. Two before naps and one at bedtime. It works really well forus.
