#1043, "Updated Schedule for 9 months olds."


          

I'm looking for an updated schedule for my 9 month (6 month adjusted)olds. I am interested in the amount of food they are eating and if you are feeding 2 or 3 times per day. I'd also like to see the amounts too if possible.

I'll share mine too.

6:30/7:00 Wake & Feed (8oz)& Play
9:00/9:30 Nap
11:00 Feed (5 oz milk + 1/2 cup of food - usually avocado, plain yogurt and sweet potato)& Play
1:00 Nap
3:00 Feed (6-7 oz milk + 1/4 cup of food- rice cereal added to zucchini) & Play
4:15 Nap
5:00 Awake
6:00 Start baths, feed (9 oz milk)
7:00 Down to sleep
2:00-4:00ish The girls will wake once at some point for a diaper change and additional 2 oz of milk)

Thanks!

my GGG trips are 8 months old (6 months adjusted). here's their schedule. It can vary by about 30 minutes one way or another, but they tend to follow it pretty closely. They eat 2 meals and 3 bottles a day. They are still pretty small, baby A is 14.5 pounds, baby B is 16.5 pounds, and baby C is 13.5 pounds. They eat a ton of solids but don't drink much in terms of formula so it is still high calorie formula.

6:30/7:00 wake, diaper changes, bottles (4-8 oz depending on baby), back to bed about half the time, play about half the time
9:00 breakfast (~12 ounces/1.5 c total, usually pureed fruit, baby cereal, yogurt)
9:30-11:30 nap
11:30 wake, play
12:30 diaper changes, bottles (4-8 oz each)
1:00-3:00 nap
3:00 wake, play
4:30/5:00 dinner (~20-24oz/2.5-3 c total, usually pureed veggie, pureed meat, pureed fruit, baby cereal, baby crackers or puffs)
5:00-6:00 short nap
6:00 wake, bath if they need it (~2x/week),diaper change, jammies, play
7:00/7:15 bottles (4-8 oz each)
7:30 in bed, they don't wake up until morning

Is the food total per baby or combined? Thanks! I think that I can increase my food and decrease my bottles.

combined! They each eat ~10-12 ounces of solids per day. Sorry for the confusion

I think they're supposed to drink 24-32 ounces of formula a day. The way we fazed out the extra bottles was to give them solids first then top them off with a bottle. After awhile they stopped taking anything from the bottle so I stopped offering it after the meals. It makes feedings so much easier in my mind to just give solids!

Thanks! I agree that it will be easier to omit a bottle. I'll see how it goes.
