Am I doing this right?

DS2 is 7 months old, and I seem to have forgotten all that I did with DS1 (it was only 4 years ago!).

DS2 is a wonderfully easy baby (I am frantically touching wood), and sleeps 7pm-7:30am every night. The challenge is to fit in his feeds and bottles, and balance them out.

I give him porridge and as much of his bottle as he wants (usually about 120 ml) at about 8 am He sleeps from 10am-11:30. I give him lunch (protein and veg/cheese sauce type thing) at about 11:45. I give him milk (about 120ml) at about 1 pm. He sleeps 3-3:45ish. When he wakes, I give him veggies and some fruit. Then he has a bedtime bottle (about 200 ml) at about 6:30 or whenever he gets tired (sometimes earlier).

Does this sound about right, or am I way off?

You feed him when he's hungry, he sleeps when he's tired?

That's pretty much how it works so yes all sounds fine. It'll be different again in 2 months, don't sweat it.

Sounds fine to me.

DS gets plonked at the table when we eat (which varies from day to day) and some food is put in front of him. If he eats it, bonus.

He gets milk when he grumbles.

I wish he slept as well as yours. He's not keen on slumber.
