Where are people at with milk and meals?

Question

So I was just wondering how many meals and bottles everybody's little ones were having at 9 nine months. 
My daughter has 3 meals a day and also 3 6oz bottle feeds, which has been fine but lately she has started to be really fussy with her dinner, still ok with breakfast and lunch usually! 
Wondering if it's perhaps time to drop her midday bottle? 
She is also just cutting her first tooth so I suppose it could be that..
Suggestions welcome 
Thanks mumma's

Answer

I would not recommend dropping bottles this early. Breast milk or formula should be the main source of nutrition until 12 months. Possibly just hitting a milestone of teething. 18 ounces a day is already on the low end so I wouldn't drop more.

Answer

My paediatrician just told me today that breast milk or formula is still number one in the nutrition department and not to even count ounces at this point and offer them as much as they want ... (and our little girl is NOT on the small side lol). I would NOT drop down to only 12 ounces as that's way below the generally recommended amounts.

Answer

The advice my health visitor gave me (uk) is to only give my boy 15oz of milk a day and the rest to be proper food. My son had 3 meals a day plus snack. 
Typically he had 4oz bottle in the morning, then peanutbutter toast and porridge for breakfast maybe even a banana
Lunch is a plate full plus a yogurt or fruit for pudding
Late afternoon bottle of 4oz 
Dinner a full meal and pudding 
Plus snacks in between! His main neutrino comes from his food and only has 2/3 bottles a day. He's happy healthy 9 month

Answer

4 6oz bottles a day at 7:00,11:00,3:00,7:30
Then 3 feedings a day breakfast is fruit and cereal, lunch is vegetables and fruit, dinner is vegetables

Answer

He gets offered 3 meals a day but usually only eats 1. He still nurses every 3 hours so I don't think anything has changed in that area.

Answer

My son has been taking 7 oz four times a day, every 4 hours at 6:00, 10:00, 2:00, and 6:00. I give him meals in between at 8:00, 12:00, and 4:00. Breakfast is yogurt and lunch and dinner is fruit and oatmeal. He gets snacks most days, 1/2 cup or so of puffs (total).

Answer

Thank all! Everyone is so different! Think I will just stick to what I've been doing for now! X

Answer

my lo usually eats 4-6 oz when he wakes.  midmorning he has breakfast anything from eggs, fruit cereal puffs ext. he had a 6 oz bottle before 1st nap. then just snacks a bit on my lunch because he is interested in food. another 6 oz before afternoon nap and then 6 more oz around 5  dinner is at 6 pm and its whatever we are eating for dinner. around 7 or 8 depending on hoe late his afternoon nap was he eats 8 oz amd goes to bed

Answer

My girl (October 7th baby!) does 6 bottles a day! Her first and last are 6 ounces and the other are 5 ounces- so 32 ounces a day total! And she does puréed food after her lunchtime bottle and eats some pinches of our breakfast and dinner!
