Feeding at 10 months

The amount of feeds for a 10mo varies depending mostly on when you intend to finish feeding in the end. I have bf my girls for 11 1/2 mos, 10 1/2 mos, and 10mos and at the 10m mark they have been having 2-3 feeds per day. The most important ones at that point are last thing at night and first thing in the morning, and at that age I started introducing cows' milk as the lunch time drink.

With Kryssi at 10mos I was formula feeding her x2 in the day (morning and afternoon) and bf evening and morning, but as my boobs were losing their 'stuffing' it got more sore to feed. That had happened towards the end of the other two girls feeding as well but I thought that was because I was pg with the next baby. So I switched Kryssi right to formula at that time to save the soreness. I'm sure that if I was feeding her 4-5 times per day at that point (and perhaps looking to wean at 15-18mos instead of 12) I would have been fine.

Omg 2-3 feeds?



Lucas still feeds 8-10 times per day....2-3 feeds just at night! Thats with solids .... he's a titty man (haha lets hope that's the ONLY thing he has in common with his father)

Wow that's really different!

Oh yay so it is possible!!

Wow you are planning ahead!
Gina is just over 10 months now and has 4 bottles (she's on formula) of 260ml each. Sometimes she'll eat the full 260ml, sometimes she'll only have 150ml. She also has 3 solid meals a day.

Yes you can BF morning and night, and no you shouldn't run out. I am back at work at Caleb is home with DH. His routine is

Wake up, BF, breakfast, short play, long sleep.

Mid to late morning - wake up, play, bottle, lunch, play, bed

Early to mid afternoon - wake up, play, bottle, play, sometimes a sleep

Late afternoon - Mum gets home, BF, dinner, play, BF, bed.

Caleb has 300-400 ml formula a day, some days we meet for lunch and I BF so he only has one bottle. I have been on holiday for two weeks and he's gone back to being pretty much fully BF but he does have food.

yummymummy- I am a bit of an over-organiser. Need to know if it's possible now hehe.

Arabella is most likely going into darecare and I will be gone from 8 - 5 (including travelling time) so depending on how many BFs she is having at 10months I can plan out how it works.

Do they still use bottles then or can you use sipper cup thingys. Lol can you tell this is all new to me?!

I'd say you can use whatever is easier for you. Jack was weaned at 13 months and he didn't drink any milk at all for a month until i managed to get him into cows milk from a cup.
