Tell me about your 8 month old milk/solids routine!

[Natsku]

Greek yoghurt with fruit or fruit puree (if you're lazy like me) is great!

 

[minkymoo]

If Greek better than natural organic or about the same?

 

[Natsku]

Well its natural so same as that, its just thicker than normal yoghurt. Mmm organic greek yoghurt or turkish yoghurt - yum!

 

[Louppey]

go for it, might take a few days to change tho. personally i would go 7, 1.30 and 7.30, give her chance to get hungry in between?

Thanks hun, I shall be trying this

Hi everyone. Can i aske a quick question?

Is Natural Yougurt less flavoursome than normal petite flous? Zach will not eat any type of yogurt or desert for that matter, might give it a try

 

[Louppey]

I have tried both, and I can definately say it's a plainer flavour

 

[minkymoo]

yes, it's plainer because of the lack of sugar. I mix fruit pots in to make it interesting (and to get extra food into her!)

 

[Fabby]

How's it going louppey? What is your new 'routine' by the way? Xx

 

[Louppey]

Hiya Fabby :wave:

Well i've introduced a snack alongside her bottles at 11.30 and 16.30. Yesterday she had 80ml of her 16.30 bottle, which for the past two days she has blunty refused so I think that's progress

She's also scoffed down the snacks quicker than anything apparently so I think that must be a sign she's potentially a little hungry? Ooops.

My Mum had her last night, so I guess i'll see tonight what she's like and i'll also give her a dreamfeed to see if that will help her sleep a little longer before waking for a bottle. 23.30 is just cruel

How's things with you? I keep meaning to PM you. Will do it now!!!!!

Hey my ds is 8.5months and his milk intake has dropped right down to about 10-14ozs a day I asked hv and she said aslong as he's eating other dairy food to then its fine.
He generally has porridge and milk for brekkie about an hour later toast then pasta or sandwich and yogurt for lunch then fruit or cheese and milk snack dinner whatever we are eating and fruit yogurt or rice pudding or custard then porridge and milk before bed and sometimes wakes for milk again by 11 at the latest hth x

 

[punk_pig]

I give fruit/yoghurt/rice cakes/ veg sticks for snacks

Thanks hun

I feel at a loss with this recently! Going to sit down and rejig her routine tonight to squeeze in snacks!

It is hard to squeeze in all the milk and solids. Feels like Maria is constantly eating sometimes!

I feel like this - we no longer leave the house!! I do breastfeed first thing then breakfast (fruit or porridge) about an hour later. Two hours after that, although only about an hr since we finished clearing up breakfast, she wants boobie but it is more to calm her down as she is starting to get tired. Nap - ON ME so nothing can be done. Straight after her nap I prep lunch but sometimes she wont wait and wants boobie depending on how much she took before her nap. Lunch takes about an hour including clean up time. Then she likes boobie to drink as she isn't great with her sippy cup yet. I havent even factored in a third meal let alone snacks...arrrggghhh
