1 Year Old Feeding Schedule

Thanks 2kidmamma. I was concerned about the sugar but had no idea about the vit a.

Hi Ladies, just want to let you know (My Pead) informed me that Milo is not really such a good idea. It contains alot of Sugar for one and the Vitamin A content is too high for kids under the age of 10. Infact if you read the tin the RDA is based on that for a 10 year old.

What exactly is Pediasure? and can u get it from any DisChem?
Do you mix it with the formula milk or water?

First time I've heard about it.

Maybe i can give it to my LO.

Thanks Julz, I just thought the Milo would contain more carbs than plain milk or water.. My son is so skinny But I bought him the choc flavor Pediasure so I give him a 90ml sippy cup with that and he loves it So Ill leave the Milo for now

kimika it should be fine to give tea or milo with milk at one or even earlier . Milo is really high in sugar so if you lo likes plain milk stick to it. Dylan only drinks milk and water. He likes both so I am not going to introduce milo etc (which i love).

The odd treat is fine. dylan is funny now though. I tried to give him some of my milo the other day and he refused it. I think the colour put him off. He is used to clear liquid.

Paed said they need to get about 600ml milk in 24hrs. If they do less then just make sure they get other dairy products so they will get enough calcium. My son drinks less than 600ml so I make sure he gets his cheese and yoghurt, which he loves

My schedule:
5:00 150ml Milk

8:00 Toddler Pronutro or Oats or Maize pap, all with milk.
Also he snacks on a piece of apple or some Cheerios or rusk or something after breakfast.

11:00 150ml Milk and then nap

13:30 Lunch of Fruit and yoghurt and then toast with either peanut butter, melrose spread or liverspread. Cheese wedge.

15:00 Snack of banana or sausages. Also I give him 100ml Pediasure shake because he has such a small appetite and wont eat 2x protein and starch meals.

17:00 Supper of Protein, veggies and starch and then sometims pudding of purity veggie or custard or biscuit

19:00 150ml Milk with 1 scoop Pediasure
1:00 150ml Milk

Also I want to know when can we start giving them tea with milk or milo??

Just check with the daycare as to how many bottles you should send now.
