We nurse first thing so she's not ready for breakfast right away. Breakfast between 8:30 - 9. Snack at 11. Lunch at 1 - 1:30. Another snack or two. Dinner at 7:00. A few nursing sessions mixed in. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-does-your-older-toddler-18-months-eat#post-1932568 Thu, 06 Nov 2014 13:01:10 +0000 cheert16 1932568@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>B is 18 months-</p> <p>Daycare days....<br /> Morning snack: 7:30 (usually a smoothie with frozen fruit and a tablespoon of yogurt- he drinks it sitting on my bed while I get ready for work)<br /> Bfast- 8:30/ 9ish<br /> Lunch - 12:30ish<br /> Afternoon Snack- 2/3ish<br /> Dinner- Between 6 and 7</p> <p>Weekends/ Days I am home:<br /> Breakfast:8<br /> Snack: 10<br /> Lunch: 12:30/1 (right before nap)<br /> Snack: 3:30/4<br /> Dinner: 5:30-6:30<br /> After dinner snack: 7/7:30 (depends on the day) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-does-your-older-toddler-18-months-eat#post-1932562 Thu, 06 Nov 2014 12:51:21 +0000 mediagirl 1932562@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Wake up at 6:30/7.<br /> Eat at 7/7:30.<br /> Morning snack around 9:30/10.<br /> Lunch at 12/12:30<br /> Dinner between 5 and 6. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-does-your-older-toddler-18-months-eat#post-1932555 Thu, 06 Nov 2014 12:47:21 +0000 blackbird 1932555@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>bfast: 630 or 7am (within 10 min of waking up)<br /> lunch: not sure, at daycare. at home, typically 11 ish<br /> dinner: 5, 530<br /> bedtime: 645</p> <p>19 months old. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-does-your-older-toddler-18-months-eat#post-1932551 Thu, 06 Nov 2014 12:43:42 +0000 Mrs. Polish 1932551@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Breakfast:8<br /> Lunch: 12<br /> Dinner: 5</p> <p>Eta: 20 &amp; 18 months </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-does-your-older-toddler-18-months-eat#post-1932532 Thu, 06 Nov 2014 12:29:44 +0000 wonderstruck 1932532@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Wakes up around 7:30, breakfast at 8</p> <p>Lunch either before or after his nap, depending on when he gets tired (like, if he's tired at 11, I'll give him a snack put him down, and feed him lunch when he wakes up.

She doesn't like to eat when she first wakes up. So if she sleeps till 700/730 on the weekends, it is usually closer to 8 before she eats. During the week, I drop her off at 715ish and I set it out for her.<br /> Lunch at 1130 (week) and around 12 on the weekends.<br /> Dinner is usually around 6. Then she gets a cup of milk after dinner. We don't give with dinner or she won't eat.<br /> She is in the crib between 7/730 and usually takes 30 mins to fall asleep.</p> <p>she is 20 months </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-does-your-older-toddler-18-months-eat#post-1932521 Thu, 06 Nov 2014 12:24:37 +0000 swurlygurl 1932521@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Breakfast and Dinner are out of necessity: 6 am for breakfast because we have to be out the door at 7. 5:30 for dinner because we get home from work a little after 5, and she's begging for bed by 6:30/7.

He has a mid-morning snack and mid-afternoon snack as well.</p> <p>On weekends it varies more depending on when he gets up and what we're doing during the day, but usually a little later. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-does-your-older-toddler-18-months-eat#post-1932506 Thu, 06 Nov 2014 12:15:15 +0000 Mrs. Sunshine 1932506@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My LO is younger than yours (14 months) but she's been getting up at 5 am starving, even after nursing. I've upped her protien &amp; fats &amp; she's been better at sleeping later. We eat dinner at 6 &amp; she's in bed by 720. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-does-your-older-toddler-18-months-eat#post-1932504 Thu, 06 Nov 2014 12:14:17 +0000 cmomma17 1932504@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Breakfast between 6 and 7 am (he's an early bird). Dinner can vary depending on the day, but it's mostly around 5:30 pm (with bedtime by 7 pm). Lunch and daytime snacks all vary day by day it seems. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-does-your-older-toddler-18-months-eat#post-1932501 Thu, 06 Nov 2014 12:12:20 +0000 BKCaribBaby 1932501@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I came to the realization this morning that LO may be eating breakfast a little late and dinner a touch early. We also have to deal with the fact that she gets up very early. I nurse after she gets up in the morning, but I think she might be getting up early because she is hungry (maybe I'm just trying to rationalize all these months of early wake-ups). </p> <p>Anyway, when does your toddler eat breakfast, lunch, and dinner? </p>
