How often to feed?

Question

How often do you feed your 5months old baby (solid+milk)?

Answer

My son breastfeeds on demand and doesnt go more than 3-4 hours without nursing during the day. He eats a whole 4oz jar in one sitting at lunch time, i sometimes give him a second jar at dinner.

Answer

No solids yet, but she eats around every 2-3 hours on demand. And then right before bed she eats every hour. She wakes once at night to eat most nights, sometimes sleeps through. she will be 6 months on the 15th.

Answer

My daughter will be 6 months on the 20th of this month and since 5 months she's been super interested in food. She drinks a bottle every 3 hours but has a half a jar of baby food in the morning (breakfast) then a another half after her second bottle (lunch) then after her 3rd bottle she has her last half(dinner) she's super good at eating off a spoon and loves to eat! Then strictly bottles until the next morning. So far she's been eating green beans, pears, apples, baby oatmeal, applesauce, sweet potatoes and squash.

Answer

Solids: once a day. About two tablespoons worth.
Formula:
She sleeps 9pm (ish) until around 6-8am and eats 5oz when she wakes.
Then sleeps until 10-11am and eats about every three hours varying 3-5oz, just whatever she will eat. No naps because she's a party animal I guess lol. No real schedule for her either, just go with the flow lol. Whenever I try to plan a schedule it doesn't work out and it stresses all of us out, so this works for us haha.

Answer

My son is bottle fed 6 oz every 4 hours and then 6 oz before bed. We just started him on solids but he is only getting small bites for practice. Not enough yet to supplement his actual feedings.
