When do you start dropping feeds?

just wondering what age you should start dropping feeds? Dd will be 7mo next week and I know she's too young but was just wondering also which feed do you drop first and should I be giving milk before or after solids? Her current routine looks roughly like this...

7am bf
8am breakfast
11/11.30 bf
12ish lunch
2.30/3 bf
5pm dinner
7pm bottle

Does this look ok?

Your timings look fine. Be guided by your lo as to when feeds should be dropped i.e. when they start taking less/dont want to feed. DS was bottle fed and didnt start dropping daytime feeds until about 9 months at which point the mid-morning feed was replaced with a snack and drink of water around 10am.

DD is bf and she doesn't start dropping feeds until 9mo. It's the same time when she started to have a huge appetite for food. I demand feed and I notice she start demanding less and less during the day.
