Re: girls with 8 month olds..

DS is 7 1/2 months old

He has about 28 oz. of formula a day and eats twice a day. He eats less in the AM and more in the PM

Re: girls with 8 month olds..

Ava just turned 9 months, but she has been drinking anywhere from 16 all the way up to 25oz of formula a day. All depends on the day. Her normal meals include...
Oatmeal with a cut up banana in it for breakfast
A slice of turkey meatloaf and some applesauce for lunch
A thinly sliced chicken breast with mixed veggies for dinner
Or a pasta dish with veggies for dinner

Sometimes she'll have a waffle for breakfast with some fruit or I make her mini blueberry muffins.

My little chunky monkey eats a ton! He does about 8 ounxes of formula per feeding (about 4 times per day) a half of jar of fruit twice per day plus rice or oatmeal twice.

Andy is 8.5 months. He's cutting a tooth this week, so he has zero interest in food, but his usual schedule is about 28 oz. formula plus food.

Breakfast: 2 tablespoons ceral mixed with 1 oz. of fomula and 1 4oz. jar of fruit and a 4oz. bottle

Nap 1: a bottle of 5oz. formula with 3 oz prune juice (he has severe consipation issues)

Lunch: 4 oz jar of meat and veggie or fuit mix, 5 oz. bottle

Nap 2: a bottle of 5oz. formula with 3 oz prune juice

Dinner: 2 tablespoons ceral mixed with 1 oz. of fomula and 1 4oz. jar of fruit and a 4oz. bottle

Bed: a bottle of 5oz. formula with 3 oz prune juice

None of Ava's food has been pureed for about a month now. She eats all table food.
