Got 7m old with no routine as such , he is BF on demand but for last few days has been having formula before bed. I am worn out (have 5 yr old also) and ideally want a routine where I only BF him in the morning and maybe once in the afternoon. he does not seem bothered aboyut BF and claws at me! Atm he has a Bf about 7am, bf and porridge at 9.30 dinner anytime between 11.30 to one and tea at about 4.30, bf at 6.30 pm and formula abt 7.30 or 8.
Should I be giving him puddings after both meals. Sometimes i give him jars, other times whatever we are eating and sometimes sandwiches. TIA

If he is gaining weight and isn't crying for food he's probably absolutely fine as he is. The clawing might be a tooth issue! 7 months is a fun old time isn't it (glad it's over)

DS gets whatever I can find at the time as well and he's survived so far
