How long until 3 meals a day?

Hi,

Our DD2 seems hungry quite a lot. I have increased her formula to a 9oz bottle each time and she has 4 of those in 24 hours plus breakfast of baby cereal and tea of baby rice/veggies mixed.

She wakes during the night around 3am but isn't interested in a bottle and sometimes during the day, usually around 11am/12pm she seems hungry but again isn't interested in her bottle. I'm wondering if I should begin introducing a 3rd meal at lunchtime or if its too much too soon?

We started weaning at 5 months so she's been on some solids for over month now. We started by just introducing breakfast, and like I say she now has tea too.

How long into the weaning process was it before your LO was having 3 meals?

My baby was in three meals a day by 6 months, she had gone loopy on her formula milk and was having well over the recommended max amount so I decided to give her 3 meals a day quite quickly.

Mine eats the most at lunchtime compared to other meals

For us, it was about a month and a half. We started at 6 months and it was probably around 7.5 months when we were doing 3 meals a day at least most days. I think it's more about when you feel you're ready to squeeze it into the day, as long as everything else is going smoothly.
