Hi Melissa, I agree with Natasha, she should have 3 bottles, and if you are worried about milk maybe you should try veggies soup with her own formula at lunch instead of her bottle this way she may be hungrier too. I 'll try to help you as I can... But as I told you this is an essay/mistake issue until you finally get her perfect schedule. As you know Ximena is a picky eater too, she eats the same stuff over and over again no matter how I prepare it. But I have to say that I season her food too with some species.
This is just a suggestion...
7 Solids (do not worry about the amount) At this moment Ximena is having only 5 oz of formula and that is it until 11, and she is happy. You can add formula to her fruit and cereal. Are you sure she is lactose intolerant? Have you done any tests? Have you tried cheese?
9 Milk (Have you tried the other way around?)
Nap
12 Solids. Try soup with milk, if you wanna recipe I will give it immediately...hidden chicken or meat (I can give the recipe too), and veggies + whatever she takes (dessert or fruit). Try to take it till 12 so she can be a little bit hungrier, if she wants a snack give her some cheerios. Again do not mind the amount.
She is healthy and strong and happy and in her weight.
2 Milk
Nap Whenever she wakes up a small snack... maybe some peas as FF if you see she is hungry.
4:30 or 5 (Again extend for her to be hungry) Dinner, yes, solids again. Try veggies and again protein. I usually give swiss cheese or yougurt and veggies, or veggies/beans or lentils and cookie.
7 Milk.
Usually when a bottle is out they get used of eating more solids... plus her amount of milk in the other bottles may increase . Why not try it for a day or two?
Is she accepting the spoon?
Ok weŽll be in touch and please pm me if you need any recipe, with picky eaters you have to do magic...
