4/430 - 7oz bottle
6 - 1.5 tbl sp cereal, 1/2 jar veg

I have not started fruits yet. I'm slow when it comes to introducing solids due to my own food allergies.

Re: 5 month o,d feeding schedule

I have no established schedule, I feel like a slacker!

DS is BF when he wakes. Some days that's at 9 am and other days it could be 5 am or 7 am (he's a good sleeper, so it doesn't usually vary that much). If its an early wake, he will sleep again.

When he wakes again, I give him cereal and a fruit (I make all his fruits and veggies in the baby bullet). Some days he will get a lunch, other days he might skip it (depends on how much we are running all over).

He'll nurse again mid-afternoon and take a longer nap then. After he wakes from longer nap, I nurse, feed him his "dinner" around 6 or 7 (usually when the rest of us eat) and then he is nursed again before bed,

All tolled, he nurses about 4x a day and eats 2-3 meals a day. He is about 5+ months old.

5 month o,d feeding schedule

When my son was 5 months, he was nursing 5 times a day:
7:30
11:30
3:30
6:30
9:00

With my first son, we started oatmeal at 4 months due to slow weight gain. He had roughly the same nursing schedule, but he had oatmeal at 9:30, 3:00, and 7/8:00.
