Sometimes I add mashed fruit or some baby food fruit puree to it to mix things up. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/worried-about-my-los-food-intake#post-1182078 Tue, 29 Oct 2013 13:05:39 +0000 NovBaby1112 1182078@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@luckypenny: thanks, that schedule helps...maybe cutting out one of her pre nap bottles would work. </p> <p>@lindseykaye: she does love yogurt, i should totally offer that more! thanks, I will try that!</p> <p>@2PeasinaPod: that's a good idea as well, I may try that tomorrow morning and see </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/worried-about-my-los-food-intake#post-1182054 Tue, 29 Oct 2013 12:56:06 +0000 2PeasinaPod 1182054@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@NovBaby1112: Could you try to switch breakfast with her first bottle? So at 7am, give her breakfast and then if she's still hungry after that, a bottle at 10? She might cut down on what she drinks during that bottle, in turn making her hungrier for lunch? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/worried-about-my-los-food-intake#post-1182052 Tue, 29 Oct 2013 12:55:39 +0000 lindseykaye 1182052@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When my LO started to eat more protien and dairy in foods, I noticed her milk intake dropped a lot. So now I try to offer some greek yogurt in the AM (if you don't care about organic, Dannon Oikos has a full fat greek option), a protien or dairy option at lunch, and a protien and/or dairy (like cheese) at dinner depending on what she ate with her other meals. We also offer water with meals (except dinner or else she will leak through her diapers at night) and that has helped. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/worried-about-my-los-food-intake#post-1182036 Tue, 29 Oct 2013 12:50:28 +0000 regberadaisy 1182036@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@NovBaby1112: honestly that is very similar to my LOs schedule. But she eats fine along with it. So I probably would cut back on the milk as well. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/worried-about-my-los-food-intake#post-1182022 Tue, 29 Oct 2013 12:45:47 +0000 luckypenny 1182022@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would cut back on her milk. At 12 months DD was getting it 3x/day. About 6 oz in AM, 8 oz after lunch and 4 oz at bedtime. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/worried-about-my-los-food-intake#post-1182000 Tue, 29 Oct 2013 12:40:36 +0000 NovBaby1112 1182000@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mamaof2: I could try that, I know she won't be happy with me though! lol</p> <p>@locavore_mama: our rough schedule is:</p> <p>7am- 5 oz bottle milk<br /> 8:30/9am- breakfast<br /> 10am- 5/6 oz bottle milk<br /> 12pm- lunch<br /> 3pm- 5/6 oz bottle milk<br /> 6pm- dinner<br /> 7pm- 5 oz bottle milk </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/worried-about-my-los-food-intake#post-1181973 Tue, 29 Oct 2013 12:35:38 +0000 regberadaisy 1181973@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When do you offer milk in relation to meal times? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/worried-about-my-los-food-intake#post-1181963 Tue, 29 Oct 2013 12:32:31 +0000 Mamaof2 1181963@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Milk is extremely filling - I would start to cut back and only offer it upon waking and bed and the other times give her water with her meals and snacks </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/worried-about-my-los-food-intake#post-1181952 Tue, 29 Oct 2013 12:28:28 +0000 NovBaby1112 1181952@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our nov 2012 feeding thread got me thinking- LO will be a year in 2 weeks and her diet consists of probably 80-90% milk still (a mix of pumped BM and WCM). She gets about 4 bottles a day, 20-25oz total. She LOVES her milk. I offer her breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and she rarely eats anything, maybe just a few bites here and there. I am getting really worried about her lack of food intake and not sure what I should do/try?</p> <p>Should I maybe try to cut back the milk so she will be hungry for food? Or should I just wait it out and wait for her to be more interested in food? Anyone else go through this? </p>
