Hi there..

I don't really know if it helps, as we are BF so not sure as to amounts of milk at each feed and doing BLW, but here is our routine:

6:30/7am: Full BF, meaning both breasts
Eight am: Breakfast
10:30/ 11am: Half BF, meaning one breast
11:30am: Lunch
12pm: Half BF
2/2:30pm: Full BF
4:15/4:30pm: Half BF
5pm: Dinner
6/6:30pm: BF until sleepy, usually a Full BF, but sometimes less
10/11pm: Full BF

Usually we do approx. a total of 5 Full BF milk feeds a day plus our meals. LO has just dropped his night time feeds. He is now over 22lbs. at Seven Months.

When did you start weaning LO?
I started about a month ago and your routine looks alot better than mine.
Basically LO has 5 bottles a day ( 6oz every 3 hours ) then breakfast and tea aswell...i just wondered if i should be giving her snacks aswell??
