Spencer was bottle fed so a bit different but he dropped the mid morning one first purely cos he started sleeping through it, I didn't replace it with anything, but as he got older and slept less then he started having a snack around 10ish instead.
I wouldn't replace a milk feed with juice personally, not sure I would try to replace it with water either.]]> Tue, 18 Aug 2009 21:35:17 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=28177&PID=751079&title=breastfeeding-8-monthers#751079 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=28177&PID=750950&title=breastfeeding-8-monthers#750950 Author: Chickoin

Hmmm interesting. Jody usually has 5-6 a day with 3 meals. But has recently dropped her mid morning one. I haven't replaced it with water or juice. Just sleep and toys.]]> Tue, 18 Aug 2009 19:33:52 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=28177&PID=750950&title=breastfeeding-8-monthers#750950 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=28177&PID=750812&title=breastfeeding-8-monthers#750812 Author: crakars

Thanks ladies =)    He is pretty happy and lotsa wet naps so i'm sure he's getting all he needs!! It's nice to not be feeding 24/7 (well that's what it used to feel like haha) but it also feels strange like I should be feeding him more but really he's just fine! If you get what I mean...lol.]]> Tue, 18 Aug 2009 16:35:52 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=28177&PID=750768&title=breastfeeding-8-monthers#750768 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=28177&PID=750696&title=breastfeeding-8-monthers#750696 Author: noodle

She also sometimes wakes once during the night.

She is the same she will have one decent one in the morning, one decent one at about 930-10pm. The rest are just small snack feed, she doesnt stay on the boob longer than 3-5 mins the whole day!!!]]> Tue, 18 Aug 2009 15:23:02 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=28177&PID=750689&title=breastfeeding-8-monthers#750689 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=28177&PID=750668&title=breastfeeding-8-monthers#750668 Author: palomino

normally 4 feeds through out the day and depending if he wakes up or not sometimes 1 at night. Morning and night feeds are long good ones, day ones are quite short with lots of pulling off and looking around etc... ]]> Tue, 18 Aug 2009 15:05:24 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=28177&PID=750668&title=breastfeeding-8-monthers#750668 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=28177&PID=750581&title=breastfeeding-8-monthers#750581 Author: cuppatea

When Lilly was 8-9 months she was having 4-5 feeds a day. They were not big feeds, but she was still happy and healthy.

Keep up the good work dylans_mummy ]]> Tue, 18 Aug 2009 13:55:40 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=28177&PID=750561&title=breastfeeding-8-monthers#750561 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=28177&PID=750556&title=breastfeeding-8-monthers#750556 Author: Bizzy

How mean breastfeeds per day is your 7/8/9 monther having?

My little boy has 3 solid meals a day and will have approx 4 - 5 breastfeeds per day. The first feed of the day is always guzzled down, but the others seem to be just short snacky feeds. I know plunket recommends baby has 600ml of breastmilk a day at this age but how can you tell if you are breastfeeding?

I'm not so much worried.. just curious as to what other babies are doing! Thanks
