	I am trying to do a daily routine for my 7 month old boy basically this is currently what he does 6am wake/breastfeed 7-7 30am breakfast baby cereal/fruit etc 8 -8 30am nap 10 - 11am wake/breastfeed 12 - 12 30 lunch yoghurt/fruit etc 1pm nap 3pm wake 4pm breastfeed 5-530pm veggie 6pm bath 7 - 7.30pm Bed/breastfeed in between is playtime going to town etc. My question is sometime he does not want his solids, he still feeds over nite normally this is only once. Am i leaving enough time between feeds so he is hungry for the solids ? Edited by teri55

	My 8mth old has basically an identical day to yours. She usually eats most of her solids - not always though, so I wouldn't stress about it too much. Only difference I guess is my DD would have a few more BFs throughout the day (demand fed). Looks to me like a pretty standard routine. And its perfectly normal to still have night-feedings. Your son will get gradually start to eat more, just remember that BF is still the most important part of his diet

	My little one is on a similiar... but he is having 5-7 bf per day (including one o/night). He also doesnt eat alot of solids, he started off great guns.. would wolf it down and would eat anything but now he is more selective and eats much less. He seems content so I am trying new foods and moving more to finger foods as he seems to prefer to eat that way.

	My son had that exact routine as you mentioned up until last week where I dropped a breast feed during the day. He started having morn/afternoon tea (usually a biscuit and raisins or some yogurt). Plunket told me it was fine for him to be on 3 breastfeeds by nine months. Not sure about him not wanting the solids at times but I find sometimes now he does not eat the same amount he does the day before but then makes up for it the next day.
