When Do You Go From 1 Meal, To 2, To 3, Then Snacks?

[Quootiepie]

Hiya,
When do you introduce more meals, and then snacks? DS is approaching 8 months, and has 2 meals a day... when do I increase again? Thanks!

we started off on 2 meals tbh as the boy just wouldn't settle - well 1 to 2 in about 10 days, we've now introduced 2 snacks, along with 3 meals now he's more mobile i'm finding he just eats everything we give him then is still looking for more. tbh i'd just be guided by your LO if he's looking for more food then try with a small lunch or something.

typically we have

brekkie at 7am & boob
10 snack and water
12 lunch and water
3 snack and milk
5 dinner and water
7 bed and boob.

during the night he only has water if he wakes up. seems to work for us it's finding something that works for you.

(he's 9 months next week btw)

oh right... thats good. I thought maybe you had to space it all out between 6 and 12 months... Might do a 3rd meal in next week or so then... what milk does he have with 3pm snack? Thanks x

he has about 6oz now we used to do 2 bottles of 8oz combined but now it's jsut the 1 with 6oz. the snacks are those organic rice cakes/carrot sticks/blueberries/rasins type things, or a little bit of bread sticks - nothing much but boy do I know it if he doesn't have his meals/snacks on time! lol.

sorry, I meant do you express or is it formula?

we've only recently got our shit together to do 3 meals plus snacks and dd is 11 months...

lol. oh sorry no that one's formula, i'm trying to stop the BF - honestly! lol.
