Feeding schedule

It seems like moms of 10 month olds are all over the board as far as how and when they are feeding their babies. This is what I am doing. Does this sound right?

7:00am: up for the day, breastfeed.
8:00am: breakfast- usually cereal mixed with fruit.
10:00am: nap
11:30am: breastfeed
12:30pm: lunch- mostly finger foods
2:30pm: nap
4:00pm: breastfeed
5:00pm: dinner- mostly finger foods
7:00pm: breastfeed then bed.

He gets a sippy of water throughout the day.

That sounds perfect for 10 months! Around 11 months, I started moving towards 3 BFs a day (I replaced the late afternoon one with a solids snack), then at a year I gradually weaned completely, dropping 1 feeding at a time until she didn't miss the dropped one anymore. It took about 2 weeks a feeding, or 6 weeks total, once I started weaning. For now, NJ's schedule looks great and not to be messed with, though!

Wow Kyung, you have it made!! =)

I can't remember exactly since it's been years since having a baby around, but it looks about right....

I'm glad to hear that NJ is sleeping better... Dr. Ferber is the way we went.

I'd concur Kyung. Rachel's still on a schedule a little similar to that....we're slowly trying to figure out how to get down to 3. I've started to get rid of the 11/12 AM nursing and give her half formula and half whole milk. It's not going well, but we'll get there.
