Can you post your 1 year olds (on milk) feeding schedule?
I am just having trouble getting a good feeding schedule down for DS. I know they are only supposed to have a certain amount of milk a day. I am having trouble spanning the bottles out. Seems like there is too much time in between bottles.

Well ds isn't on milk yet... we're going to start in 2 weeks. But i'm planning on just replacing his 4 bottles of formula with milk instead.
He has his bottles around: -6:15 am -1030 am -2:30 pm -6:30pm

Re: Can you post your 1 year olds (on milk) feeding schedule?
Kristina comes down with me in the morning, and I hand her a 9oz sippy of milk.
We sit down about 20 minutes later to eat breakfast. Either an egg scrambled with a half of an apple, or a banana with a small bowl of dry cereal is the norm.
She drinks from her cup during her breakfast, after her breakfast.
About an hour and a half after she eats she takes her 1st nap. Whatever milk is left, I put back into the fridge.
She wakes up and has her lunch. Macs n cheese, grilled cheese sandwich, meat filled tortellini, whatever.... Veggies and fruit, and of course her milk to drink.
More milk after lunch until nap #2.
Wakes up and if she has finished the first sippy.... She gets sippy #2, and has her dinner with us at around 5-530, and I try to get her to polish off her milk from the 2nd sippie by then. If she doesn't finish it, I give her a slice of cheese for her fat intake as opposed to the milk, KWIM?

Well, personally, I feel that at 1, you don't really need to schedule bottles anymore, milk is not like formula and is not their primary source of nutrition. It should be served with meals/snacks.

6:30 AM - morning bottle 8-9 ozs
Noon - after 1st Nap - 4ozs
4PM - after 2nd Nap - 4ozs
7PM - nightime bottle - 4ozs
DS just kind of plays with his sippy cups still so I still give him bottles the same way as I would with formula.

DD gets her first 8 oz bottle when she wakes up in the morning around 8:30. Then she doesn't get her next 8 oz bottle until right before bedtime around 8:30.
She gets a sippy cup with water throughout the day with her meals.

DD gets about 5 oz of milk with her meals at 7am, 12pm, and 5pm. Sometimes she'll have a small snack and some water between meals.
