how many times a day does your 5-7 month old get boob or bottle?

i ebf and ds(6 months) gets nursed 5 times in a 24 hour period but now that i'm trying to feed him solids 3 times a day in between nursing i find it hard to get the 5 feedings in. it's also hard when ds's naps and waking times are different evry day.

should i cut back to 4 nursing sessions a day and will he just drink more during those sessions?

whats your solids/milk schedule? how do u stick to it if your dc sleeps and wakes at different times each day?

tia!

DD drinks 4 8oz bottles. Sometimes she only drinks 5-6oz of the last one. She also has breakfast around 8am and dinner around 6pm. The bottles are 9a, 1p, 4p, 7p.

DD is 6.5 months. She gets 5 6oz bottles, plus cereal and fruit in the morning and a veggie for dinner.

I'd like to up the bottles to 8oz and cut out a feeding - but she barely finishes the 6oz.

8 oz bottles a day.



I forgot to mention he also has cereal with fruit in the Am and cereal with veggie in the PM.

We are not starting meats or a 3rd feeding till he is 7 months.
