Feeding Schedule - 5 month old

Hi,

Im so glad our babys are the same age!

Thanks Julz for your input! Much appreciated.

Kristin, mine is sleeping form 7 till 5 in the morning without waking up. Before yesterday, she was having 200ml formula @6, 3 teaspoons of Nestle cerelac at 8:00 , 14:00 formula and veggies either 12:00 or at about 16:00, and formula again at 18:00 and 10:00

I have changed her eating plan, thats why im asking for help, cause i think i might be giving her too much food

Can you help / assist?

Julz - gave Troy his first teaspoon of rice cereal last night - pulled the funniest faces! I had forgotten how fun it is feeding them!

I wouldn't worry either as they do only need milk until 6 months. Just remember to introduce new foods one at a time for allergies.

Yes thank you for asking this question. My baby is also 5 months 2 weeks and I think she's eating too little. I also should never have bragged that she sleeps through because I jinxed it. She woke up at 12am, 3am, 4am, and then at 4:15am we realised she was hungry. We gave her a bottle then and she slept until 5:30am and woke up again. I'm exhausted today! This happened yesterday as well.
She is having 3.5 - 4 200ml bottles of formula per day, 1 teaspoon of rice cereal mixed with a little formula milk and last night had 4 spoons of sweet potato purity.

Maybe we can compare notes and figure out what is going on??

My LG was 7.4kg's last week Wednesday.

At 5 months dylan was eating a variety and I would just feed him as much as he wanted. He didn't eat that much though.

Under 6 months milk is still the priority though.

Some babies eat more so don't stress. They are not like us. They don't tend to over eat.

As long as the food is healthy don't worry.

Hi

I need you input / advise please.

My lg is 5 months and 2 weeks. She is on Formula

I think i might be giving her too much food. OR too much of a variety. (cereal, fruit & veggies - small quantities of course!) She weighs 8kg.

Can you tell me if you have a feeding schedule ?

Thanks ladies, i would really appreciate this.
