I'm sure you could do lunch earlier or later in that window between naps and LO probably wouldn't mind. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/timeline-of-your-day-when-baby-is-on-3-meals-a-day#post-1384084 Wed, 29 Jan 2014 11:28:41 +0000 sslm 1384084@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@NurseMommy: yes. I've tried it but she gets too distracted and won't eat while we are out!!! She's such a pain in my butt :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/timeline-of-your-day-when-baby-is-on-3-meals-a-day#post-1384035 Wed, 29 Jan 2014 11:22:35 +0000 NurseMommy 1384035@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A is 8 months old and this is roughly our routine:<br /> 8:00 wake up/nurse<br /> 9:00 breakfast<br /> 10:00 nap<br /> 10:45 up from nap, nurse<br /> 11:00 out and about<br /> 12:00 lunch<br /> 2:30 nurse, nap<br /> 4:30 up/nurse<br /> 5:30 dinner<br /> 6:15 bath<br /> 7:00 nurse, story time, bed</p> <p>Eta: I usually feed about an hour after bf, so that she wants the food but is still getting most of her nutrition from milk. Have you considered bringing lunch with you so you can go out and get things done? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/timeline-of-your-day-when-baby-is-on-3-meals-a-day#post-1383973 Wed, 29 Jan 2014 11:13:14 +0000 photojane 1383973@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't BF, but here's our schedule...</p> <p>Up at 6:30, 5oz formula<br /> Breakfast at 7:30<br /> Nap at 8:30<br /> Up at 10:30, 5 oz formula<br /> Lunch at 11:30<br /> Nap at 12:30<br /> Up at 3-3:30<br /> Snack at 4<br /> Dinner at 6-6:30<br /> bath, and 5oz formula at 7:30<br /> bed at 8</p> <p>It changes depending on what we have going on, but that's the basic (I'm going to drop the mid-morning bottle soon). I use snacks to be more flexible with meal times. If we need to run errands or have plans, I may just do a snack time and push a meal back. Or do an early meal, and then give her a snack later. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/timeline-of-your-day-when-baby-is-on-3-meals-a-day#post-1383960 Wed, 29 Jan 2014 11:09:09 +0000 heartonastring 1383960@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Here's what we do:</p> <p>7:30 - Wakeup and nurse<br /> 9:00 - Breakfast<br /> 10:30 - Nap<br /> 11:45 - Wakeup and nurse<br /> 12:15-ish - Go out and do things<br /> 1:45-ish - Lunch<br /> 2:45/3:00 - Nap<br /> 4:30 - Wakeup and nurse<br /> 6:00 - Dinner<br /> 7:00 - Bath/bedtime</p> <p>We sometimes switch it up and have lunch right after her post-morning nap nursing session and then go out, but I find she naps better if she eats about one hour before her nap. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/timeline-of-your-day-when-baby-is-on-3-meals-a-day#post-1383932 Wed, 29 Jan 2014 11:03:35 +0000 sslm 1383932@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Help me come up with a schedule for when to do meals. Here's what our day looks like, nursing and sleep wise. </p> <p>7:30 am wake up and nurse<br /> 10:30 am nurse to sleep for nap #1<br /> 11 up from nap<br /> 2:30 nurse to sleep for nap #2<br /> 3 or 3:30 up from nap<br /> 6:30 bath time<br /> 7:30 asleep (having nursed to sleep)</p> <p>Right now I do breakfast around 8:30, lunch around 12:30, and supper at 5:30. I'm wondering if I could do lunch earlier to maximize the time I'm able to actually leave the house. Lol. </p> <p>Thoughts on a good "schedule" (I hate that word) for us? </p>
