Keep in mind she is abig babay was 10lbs at birth.

She has:
6am-4oz
730-cereal with fruit or yogurt with fruit
10ish-4 oz
1230ish lunch whch varies and 6 oz
2:00- 4 oz
530-dinner-varies
630-4oz

I am thinking it might be too much formula

Sounds spot on to me.

eta...I always gave/give Noah 8 oz bottles, so maybe the formula is not enough? I never kept track of what he ate, if he was hungry, I just fed him...so I am not really sure

If thats too much formula, then my son is having WAAAAYY too much. I think it sounds just right to me.

We are also having probs with solids..he's not the best solid eater, as hard as I try so a lot of his diet is still formula. I figure in time it'll get better...

Ryan eats on the same schedule with no lunch bottle and 6-7 oz at each of the other bottles

Same here. Kaylee will be 8 months soon and she has 8 oz bottles.

Sounds good! Like a few of the other ladies said, I gave 8 oz. bottles too. I think we were doing 3 8-oz. bottles at that point, and a feeding schedule like yours, except just had one bigger bottle instead of 2 smaller bottles in the morning and evening. Chat Icon

sometimes I feel like Jack's eating too much too but this is our schedule:

7-7:30 8oz, oatmeal cereal & fruit

1-2 hr nap

11:30-12 6-8 oz meat & veggie

2 hr nap

5:00 6oz bottle

6:30 meat, veggie & barley cereal
2 oz formula

he's been gaining about a pound a month

eta: sleep at 7:30-8pm
