I think my 9 month old could drop a nursing...can others share their schedules of a similiar age? Thanks.
0500 Wake and BF
0730 Solids (2-3 cubes)
0900 5-6 oz EBM
1100 Solids (2-3 cubes) and finger food
1200 5-6 oz EBM (this is the one I am considering dropping)
1500 5-6 oz EBM
1630 Solids (2 cubes) and finger food
1730 BF and bed

Hi Jeni!
Here is our schedule--my dd is 9 mos on Friday.

7:30 am wake and bf
8:30 oatmeal and fruit
11:30 or 12 bf or ebm (7 oz or so tho she wouldn't take bottle yesterday)
12:30 yogurt and fruit
4pm bf
6pm dinner (rice cereal and veg)
7:30 or 8pm bf and bed

So I bf 4 times a day and it seems to be enough for us. I think yesterday she had too much cereal at breakfast and therefore wasn't hungry for the bottle. (I work part time).
maybe if it's possible with your schedule you could consolidate those 2 middle feedings and do it at 1330 or 1400?
HTH

At 9 months we were down to 4 feeds and by 10 we had dropped to 3.

I think I will try to move to 4 nursing/EBM bottles. I may cut back on the noon bottle or let him have a couple ounces in a sippy cup (and later transition to whole milk).
