9 month feeding

Ok, it has been a long time since I have done this. What are or were your feeding schedules like at this age and what did you give them at each meal. Please include bottles. I have not been very good at doing things at the same time everyday and am not sure when to give them snacks and such. Thank you.

HERE is a link to fellow TSers schedules at 9 months. Maybe you can find something that you like. For me, we were doing 3 solids meals per day, just dropped to 2 naps, and doing 5 bottles (one at night). I dont think we were doing any snacks yet. Once they dropped the third nap, they went to bed at 5:30pm and not a minute later or they were overtired.

Thank you so much. That link was very helpful as well as your schedule.

This was A&N's schedule at that age:

6:30am wake up/8 oz. bottle
8:00am breakfast
9:00am to 10:00am nap
11:30am bottle 6oz.
12:30 lunch
2:00pm to 3:00pm nap
4:00pm bottle 6 oz.
5:00 dinner
6:30 bottle 8oz. and bed

 

7:00 6 oz BM
8:00 breakfast- oatmeal, fruit, etc.
11:30 lunch- all table food now
12:30 6 oz. BM
3:00 snack
4:30 6 oz. BM
6:30 dinner
7:45 6 oz BM- they normally only take 2 oz.

We are cutting a bottle this weekend and they will only be taking 3. We are going to up the bottles to 7 oz but I still don't think they will drink it all. Right now it's rare if they finish a bottle.

 

Here was ours at 9 months....

It seems as if we eat and snack all day these days!

730 wake and bottle
830 breakfast(pancakes, cereal, applesauce, fruit)
915 snack(usually puffs or cheerios), milk in sippy
930 nap
1130 bottle
1230 lunch(pasta, diced veggies, and veggie baby food)
115 snack(crackers),milk in sippy
130 nap
330 bottle
4 snack(nutrigrain bar), milk in sippy
430 bath
530 family dinner(usually some of what we are eating, or pasta, veggies, fruit, and one container of baby food)
7 bottle and bed

The days of liking pureed food are coming to an end, they bat at the spoon as soon as they see it.

 

Mine are close to 8 and a half months, so not quite 9 yet, but heres our feeding schedule. We're going to push the 11am bottle back to 12 soon, and drop the 3pm bottle and substitue it for a snack and sippy. They'll be getting 8 oz bottles instead of 7.

7am 7oz bottle
9am breakfast - rice or oatmeal cereal and fruit
11am 7 oz bottle
1pm lunch - fruit or veg plus a little cereal, plus a little finger food and a sippy of water (introducing both)
3pm 7oz bottle
5pm dinner - meat, veg etc (stage 3 and/or homemade)
7pm bottle
