Formula schedule
Morning mamas. We’ve recently stopped breastfeeding due to biting 🤦♀️ LG has been combi fed since birth and was having 2/3 bottles a day already and then BF when needed.
My question now is what sort of schedule should I use along with solids? Should she be getting a bottle in the morning before breakfast, as I normally would have given her a really quick BF and I feel she wouldn’t need a full bottle then have her weetabix etc.
Before we stopped altogether, she was having a bottle mid morning (10ish before nap) then after lunch (2ish) then before bed (7ish) and now we’re doing one overnight if needed. Is this enough or do I need to add another? I normally do 5/6oz

I do one bottle when he wakes and one bottle before bed both 7oz. And some days he will have a 230 bottle if he’s hungry of just 5oz but that’s not every day recently. Very hit and miss. he has three snacks a day too. I have found he’s drinking a lot more water since not having the midday bottle.
We are on 3 bottles and 3 meals, I do food first then milk. I would say she drinks about 5-6oz each time on average but the afternoon bottle has been getting smaller so I am going to copy daycare and try and replace that one with a snack.

They say aslong as there getting 500 ml of formula that is enough for this age! I used to ebf but now bottle I'm slowly dropping bottles as he was on 6 bottles in 24 hrs so think we've got it to 3 in the day and one night feed still figuring it out make sure he's getting enough xx
