what time and what your 18 months old baby does eat?

[sasa15]

My Gp told me that ds 18 months 18kg and half is heavy and cut the milk feed before bedtime and just dinner in the evening!

he has breakfast at 8.30 9oz plus couple of cereal biscuits

snack at nursery half banana at 10.00

lunch at 12ish pasta with meat or fish...meatballs

nap 13.30-15.30

snack at 5pm ---yogurt

dinner at 8.00pm- pasta with cheese....4 spoons

sleep at 9.00pm

I just changed his routine since moved in Italy---
food and also lifestyle is different...use to be a
7 to 7 baby....

just wonder what other babies same age eat!!!

My dd is 14 months, so a little younger. We've just switched from a bottle to a cup in the morning, so she's off milk a bit, but she usually has:

7.00am 6 oz milk
8.00 porridge (made with milk), half a piece of wholemeal toast

10.30 - water & oatcakes

12.00 - lunch (fish, rice, veg etc.) with lots of water followed by fresh fruit

3.00 - water & dried fruit or banana

5.00 - supper - vegetable risotto, pasta & sauce or something like that (tends to be vegetarian) followed by fresh fruit

7.00 - between 8 - 10oz milk.

I don't know what she weighs now, but at 12 months she weighed 10.02kg which made her just above 50th centile.

18 kg is heavy, but how tall is he? Is he tall for his age?

I would drop the cereal bicuits and replace with apple if you are concerned.

My nearly 3 year old ds eats about that, and isn't a poor eater.

what centile is he on?

not sure what mine weighs. just under 2 stone and he is 16 months.
Has a slice of toast when he wakes up and a drink of milk.
2 to 4 weetabix around 7 am
Lunch around 1
tea around 5
has drinks when he wants and eats whatever he can find in between.
Often has a banana around 3.30

Ds is 18m and weighs about 12kg -hes quite a chunky build. He has days where he seems to eat or be demanding food constantly!

Average day goes a bit like this:

Breakfast 7.30 am -cereal(weetabix/shreddies/porridge) and maybe half slice of toast. Water to drink.

Mid-morning snack -something like banana and ricecakes, breadsticks, fruit. Water.

Nap - 11/11.30 til 12/12.30

Lunch -Sandwich, cherry tom, cucumber, cheese, other "finger food" like pieces of cold pasta, carrot etc followed by fruit/yoghurt. water

Mid afternoon snack -similar to morn snack

Tea/dinner 5/5.30pm- cooked meal (usually whatever we're eating - veggie) followed by fromage frais/fruit or sometimes a pudding like rice pud or banan custard. water

Bedtime 7pm -8oz milk

He will only drink milk out of a bottle hence he doesn't have it at meal times but gets plenty of dairy in yoghurts, cheese (which he loves!) and on cereals etc.

HTH

forgot to add bed around 6 to 6.30.
Any one know what 2stone is in kilo's?

Ds3 is 17 months, no idea of weight!

Breakfast around 7.30 - usually weetabix, maybe a packet of raisins (to keep him quiet while dealing with other kids!)

Mid-morning snack 10-10.30 - biscuit, rice cake, fruit plus half a beaker of milk

Nap 11-1pm

Lunch 1.30ish - sandwiches/toast/cheese and crackers, fruit, muffin or similar/yoghurt

4pmish - fruit or biscuit or crackers

5.30ish - evening meal - whatever the older two are having followed by pudding (fruit/yog/rice pud/gingerbread man or other treat sometimes)

7ish - beaker of milk

Throughout day he will drink water or watered down fruit juice.

DD 18mo don't know what she weighs either but she's really small.

she has:

7am two beakers of milk
8am cereal like one weetabix and some toast (which she'll nibble at)
11am snack of an organic biscuit/rice cake, some grapes or a banana
1.30am lunch cheese sandwich or something like a finger food buffet, yoghurt
4pm snack fruit or another biscuit if she didn't have one in the morning
6pm dinner usually whatever we are having or finger foods, followed by rice pud or yoghurt
8pm beaker of milk

She's very independent and will hardly eat anything off a spoon and will eat herself with a fork.

thats why she is small...she is eating herself!!!

sorry my mistake is 11 and half kilos
not 18 kg

thank you for your answer
I've got an idea...I think is more o less similar diet....

DS is 19 months & snacks seemingly constantly (lives on fruit & Mcvite's cheddars), plus (usually) 3 decent size meals, plus 3 breastmilk feeds/day (he doesn't like cow's milk).

He's just about spot on 50th percentile for weight but a bit higher p'tile for height.

All of mine were enormous eaters at this age.

My dd is 16m and between 11 and 12kg, I don't know exactly.
Breakfast at 9am: bottle of whole milk + half a slice of bread + porridge
Lunch at 12noon: savoury + yogurt or fruit
Snack at 16:30pm: Bottle of whole milk + fruit
Dinner at 19pm: savoury + yogurt or fruit
Bed at 8:30pm

auntymandy, a stone is about 7kg

11.5 kilos sounds fine, not too heavy!

so he is almost 14kg!

My lo is only just 17 months and weights just 10kg, boy, bit concerned as reading other comments thinks he doesn't eat enough now.

7.30am 1 weetabix (or bowl of porridge etc) and 5 fl oz milk to drink.
9.30am snacks on rice cakes, fruit etc.
11.30am dinner, water to drink, yogurt, fruit.
2.30pm plate of fruit, buttered bread, rice cakes, biscuit. Water.
4.45pm soup and bread (or boiled egg & toast), yogurt, fruit. Water
6.45pm 7 floz milk (from bottle)

Have been advised to cup back on bottle, but said that he doesn't drink milk apart from bottle. Also said concerned about height and weight. Tried to give him milk in beaker in day as well, doesn't drink that much. Think if I cut out bottle at night, then he won't be drinking anything.
