8 month old feeding schedule help!!!?
So my daughter will be 8 months old on Wednesday. Up until 2 weeks (ish) ago she would drink anymore from 3 to 4 bottles (5-6 oz) while i am away at work. She would also eat either a breakfast food or lunch food. Well now she is just drinking her morning bottle and maybe 1 more around 12...but only about 3 to 4 oz. And maybe half of what she would eat in baby food. She is still nursing like a champ and almost every 2 hours while im off and home with her.. i dont know what to do about her not wanting to take a bottle. I feel like she isnt eating enough in the 9 hours im away. Please give me ideas to help.
I know exactly what your going through. Except for the breastfeeding. I bottle fed. But I think 8-10 months was a struggle for my dd. She couldn't decide whether she wanted a bottle or baby food and most of the time nothing at all. If I don't eat I get light headed and dizzy or out of energy so I always worried she felt like that. So I tried to offer formula and a few bites of food every hour or two if I really felt like she wasn't eating. While your at work you can tell whoever watches her to do the same. But for me it stopped by 11 months and now she drinks maybe a bottle or 2 during the day but I prepare 3 small soft meals for dd to eat And give little puffs or yogurt bites for a snack in between.
