BWLO: Dropping a bottle
Landon is getting 5 bottles a day (26 oz) and 3 stage 2 solids plus rice.
About a month ago we dropped a bottle (from 6 a day to 5) because he wasn't wanting to eat.
We will follow his cues to drop another one, but I'm wondering which one should go/would be the easiest to drop?
Here's his schedule:
6am or so- 5 oz bottle
8-8:30am- 5 oz bottle, solid
12pm- 5 oz bottle, solid
4pm- 5 oz bottle
5:30pm- solid
7ish pm- 6 oz bottle
WDYT? What did you do with your LO, and how old were they?
Re: BWLO: Dropping a bottle
Nora was drinking milk five times a day until she was about 10-11 months old. Morning and bedtime feedings were nursing sessions, but her three feedings during the day were bottles.
If you are looking to drop one, I would probably get rid of the 8-8:30 a.m. bottle. I'd move up the noon bottle to around 11 then, and maybe put a few more ounces in each bottle. That's what we did with Nora, anyway. She was eating 5 oz. three times, and we changed it to two 7 oz. bottles instead.
Don't know if that helps. But as you know, every baby is different... like you say, just follow his lead.

The one in the morning was the one we dropped - it wasn't before her nap and it was often only a little while after her morning bottle.
I don't even remember bottles, let alone what kind of schedule he was on ....
