At 8 months...
how much did/do your twins eat?
How many bottles and how many ounces?
How much solid food and how often?
My boys have three to four bottles a day (6-8 ounces each), oatmeal mixed with fruit and then a vegetable.
Thanks!!!

Re: At 8 months...
My triplets will be 7 months on February 2nd. My boys take 4 6-8oz bottles and they are fed 3 meals. Breakfast is oatmeal and a fruit. Lunch is a veggie and a fruit, and dinner is rice, a meat and a veggie.
My DD is much smaller than her brothers and on a bit of a different feeding schedule. She takes 5 5-6oz bottles and 2 meals of just oatmeal or rice cereal. We are starting her this week on her first veggie.

 drinks 3 bottles/day Each one is 6-8 oz.
 will drink the same + 4 oz bottle before bed (doesn't always finish it)
They both eat 1 container/jar of fruit for breakfast plus a bunch of puffs
For lunch they have a container/jar of veggies + a Yo Baby Yogurt + more puffs
For dinner they eat a meat/veggie combo dinner + a small bowl full of oatmeal mixed with formula (and again, more puffs)
We will be moving to the bigger stage 3 jars soon. They still seem hungry alot of the time.

Re: At 8 months...
Can't help with the ounces/bottles because my girls are EBF.
But by 8 months old they ate 2 meals a day. Cereal with fruit in the morning. And cereal with veggie in the evening.
They nursed on a schedule. When they woke up in the am, before am nap, before pm nap, before bed. So 4 times a day. Unless they were super cranky sometimes they'd want to nurse after the pm nap.

Re: At 8 months...
This was a question for our Dr at their 9 month well visit. They don't like to drink a lot of formula during the day. 3-4 ozs in the morning. 3-4 ozs afternoon and 6 oz before bed. The problem is they are waking around 2-3 am for a bottle which they will drink 6 ozs. I have to get them to sleep through the night so they have that bottle during the day. The Dr says it;s ok since they are eating 3 meals a day. He gave the go ahead for them to eat basically anything we are having except the usual honey, milk, strawberry's, egg white and peanut butter.
Breakfast is cereal and a fruit. Lunch was yogurt or custard and a fruit or sweet potato or any new food we were trying. Now I have started pastina and cheese and will be trying new finger foods. Dinner is meat, veggie or 2 and usually a little fruit for dessert.
