Hi Girls!
Thanks so much for sharing your routines! Stacey, I think I will join you all on the Nov/Dec birth clubs page! Thanks! I laughed when you said that 6am was "early." Out little one is usually up between 5 and 6am....6am being her sleeping in! So, we have adjusted to this schedule and it works for us too!
Here is our routine.....
6:30 Nurse
8-8:30 Breakfast: 1/4 cup baby oatmeal mixed with 4 oz of pureed fruit....juice/water combo in a suppy cup
9ish....nap...our famous 45 min napper!! Gotta love that!
10:30 Snack: Yogurt
12:30 Lunch: (This is all over the place right now...she doesn't necessarily want pureed food too much anymore, but gets tired of eating the finger food...so we are struggling!) BUT..normally it is cheese, peas, baby meatballs, some sort of pureed veggie
1:00 or 2:00 Nap....again 45 mins
2:30/3:00 Nurse (This one is like a snack...I think I am going to cut it out today and see how she does...will replace with another type of snack.)
5:00ish Dinner: 4 oz veggie, some sort of protein, 1oz fruit mixed into 1/4 cup rice cereal
7:00 Bath, Bottle/Nurse (I work 4 nights a week), story and bedtime
I am struggling with getting away from the pureed food because she only has 2 teeth and no other ones even looking like they are coming, so I am not sure what else to feed her!
I also know she does not sleep enough during the day, but I have struggled with these 45 min naps FOR A WHOLE YEAR NOW and NOTHING has worked, not one of the BW things, nothing, so we have given up and accepted this!
Let me know if you have any hints or ideas or thoughts about our schedule! Does anyone know exactly how much milk they are supposed to have daily once they switch to whole milk?
THANKS THANKS THANKS
