6-7 month old feeding schedules?

Question

Just curious on what everyone’s LO’s eating schedule looks like for this age. My LO will be 7 months old and it’s looks like I may need to adjust her schedule from 3 hours to maybe 4 hours or I just need to cut back on her formula since she’s starting to want more solids. Any suggestions will be taken!

Answer

3 hours sounds good to me! U don’t want to give them less formula or breast milk! That’s all their water or liquid and nutrients and main food supply. Solids is only for learning to eat and iron. They don’t truly need solids for the first year i believe. My Lo still eats every 2 hours. Which is probably too often but that’s how he does it! ( he’s healthy weight but smaller side for sure and he doesn’t eat very long and more frequently I’d say)

Answer

i do every liquid feeding every 3 hours and 5 times a day: 7am, 10am, 1pm, 4pm and 7pm. no feeds at night. and solid feeding 2 or 3 times a day

Answer

No you can’t cut back formula til 12 months old.
Granted we only JUST started this routine a week ago since he turned 7 months but it’s working wonderfully.
6am: Wake, nappy change and bottle
8-9am: solids. Yes, we wait longer after bottles cause he has a tendency to spew if overfed. It’s worked perfectly for us because his bottles are now further than 3 hours apart like they should be.
11am: bottle
1pm: solids
3-4pm: bottle
5pm: solids
5:30pm: bath
6-6:30pm: bedtime 
He has 3 naps a day but we’re currently trialling a sleep program so

Answer

We do milk feeds @ 7,11,3 and 615/30 and solids around 730, 12/1230, and 530p, Bedtime is 7 and Wakeup is 6-630 usually. I am still feeding 1x in the night around 2-3am. It’s working for us. We just increased to 3x meals a day and we started solids 5 weeks ago.

Answer

My son eats every 2-3 hours with starting around 6/7am when he wakes up, we do 2 ounces of fruit with 3-4 scoops of oatmeal using the baby spoon, lunch @ 1230 is veggie with 3 spoons of a meat mixed in, dinner is a veggie or fruit and veggie combo with meat around 630. And we nurse as much as he eats throughout the day! His doctor said he should be eating 3x a day at this age but nursing for his main nutrients!

Answer

I feed her barley when she gets up, then an hour later she gets a bottle.  Then about 3 hours later she’ll have a veggie or fruit for lunch & have a bottle one hour after that.  Then 3 hours later she’ll have another bottle.  Then dinner she’ll have another fruit or veg & then will have another bottle.
I believe that’s her whole schedule.  The last thing i feed her is the bottle after lunch and then she goes to daycare.  I may be missing another bottle in there somewhere.

Your not supposed to cut back on formula. Why do you think you need to change?
