According to my son's daycare sheets, he eats "all" of most everything I send. Sometimes "some." They always write down he finishes "all" of his bottles even though sometimes they send the bottle home w/ an ounce left. That's not the weird part.
My son consumes 20 oz of milk (15 oz at daycare, 5 oz bottle when he wakes first thing) plus oatmeal/fruit, snacks (two separate snacks - usually one snack of puffs/melts and another of pieces of fruit), 4 oz of puree, AND a BLW lunch (three items offered) all before getting home at 6. According to daycare, his last bottle is at 3/3:30 and he has the 4 oz puree and snack around 4. But when he gets home at 6 he pitches a fit lately until he gets another bottle. Yesterday, he ate another 4 oz at 6. Then a piece of pizza for dinner at 6;15. Then another 5 oz before bed at 7:30.
Here's the crazy question. Do you think daycare is lying about how much he is eating? He moved rooms about a month ago and has new teachers that I don't know as well. I feel like that is just an awful lot of food for my 11 month old to be eating. He is a peanut - like 17 1/2 lbs! Why does he act starving at 6 if he's eaten a bottle plus 4 oz of puree at 3 and 4? When he is at home, he eats about the same, but doesn't have that 6 pm bottle and usually doesn't have the 4 oz jar of puree at home, either.
What the heck is going on? (and thanks for reading this long post).
my LO (same age as yours) drinks about 26oz formula plus solids too
