How long after solids should I offer bottle?

From a practical sense - we try and eat dinner between 5/5:30, but then we usually get our 8 month old ready for bed around 6:15 as the bottle takes 15 mins to drink and then he has a bath, but is the bottle too close to dinner? Don’t want to put him in a food coma haha!

Curious to see the answers he…. I feel like my wee one would literally just let me spoon food into him til he was sick …. I have been giving like half to 2/3 of the large purée sachets followed by some milk twice a day and just bottles the rest of the day….we’ve only just started food

Im on some feeding groups on SM (puree & blw) and the general rule I see is to keep all bottles the same before 1 year as that is babys main source of nutrition, and do solids around 30 mins after a bottle

Maybe do the bottle after the bath if you are worried it is too close to dinner?

Dinner at 5/5.30, bottle at 6.30 is pretty standard though.
