(uae)

Can I have an example of feeding schedule for 10 months old baby?

Baby Help Line Response:

Sure thing! The below schedule still works more or less even for our 3-year old.

Here's the feeding schedule!

By the way, you may also be able to find good advice about schedules for 9 Month old from Mamasource. :-)

ten month old feeding schedule
by: Monica Campos

that's about the same I feed to my almost ten month old baby girl. But I give her more formula in between feedings and make her home made chicken soup with vegetables for dinner most of the time instead of the gerbers.

eating so frequently
by: Anonymous

ok so i am also struggling with a feeding schedule for my 10 month old twins...
i feel like i struggled to spread their nursing sessions out to four hours, and now that they are eating solids, i seem to be feeding babies every two hours or so
i see that is what you all are doing too
how do you get anything done/go anywhere with babies eating so often

Twins feeding schedule
by: Anonymous

My twins are 10 months old now. They wake between 6-7. They get an 8 oz bottle at about 7:30. The usually nap from 9-11. They split 1 full cup (dry) of rice cereal and/or oatmeal. Sometimes I will give them a stage 2 fruit. They also take 5 oz. They play until nap time at 1 which lasts until 3. At 3 they get 5oz bottle and I full stage 2 jar of a meal (chicken/beef or something) and a full stage 2 veggie. THey stay awake until their final 8 oz bottle which happens between 6-7. Sometimes they will take a stage 2 cereal fruit jar. They go to sleep at 7-7:30. Hope this helps.

10 month old feeding schedule
by: Brea's mommy

Wakes at 8-8:30 a.m. and starts off with an 8 oz. bottle
Breakfast at 9:30 (1/4 cup rice cereal with 3 oz. formula. Scrambled eggs (yolks and whites) OR buttered toast OR pancakes). Cup (I like the Avent Magic cups) with 1-2 oz. of whole milk. (My doctor said I can start weaning her from formula).
YoBaby Yogurt (with iron fortied cereal mixed in) at 10:45 a.m. Also likes to eat a whole Kraft single piece of cheese.
Lunch at 12:30 (Cut up sandwich for finger feeding (grilled cheese, turkey and cheese, etc.) plus a fruit (one whole banana cut up for finger feeding or cut up berries, etc.) 2 oz. whole milk in cup.
Nap 1 - 3:30/4 p.m.
Dinner at 5:00 (Basically whatever we eat but in appropriate portions for her). Usually a meat and two veggies or a veggie and pasta.
Bath at 7:30 followed by 8 oz. bottle followed by bedtime around 8:15 or 8:30 p.m.

Hope this helps...

8am-7 oz bottle
10am-1 jar baby food mixed with cereal
12pm-7 oz bottle
12:30-3:30-nap
4pm-7 oz bottle
5:30pm-1 jar baby food

She just really started taking baby food though so that's why she's not on whole lot.

Meat Eater!
by: Anonymous

Our baby is 10 months old (today!); her 'schedule' (which does vary slightly):
- wakes up at 5am for 7-8 oz bottle and goes back to sleep (90% of the time)
- wakes up again at 6:30-7 am for 6 oz bottle
- plays a bit and then has breakfast 7:30 am (oatmeal, other mixed cereals, pureed fruit mixed with yoghurt, sometimes cheese, toast and cream cheese)
- has another bottle (6-8 oz) and sometimes takes a nap around 9:30 am for 30 min.
- has lunch at 11:30- noon (mostly finger foods (cheese, meats, some pureed veg, rice crisps))
- sometimes has a bottle (6-8 oz) at 1pm and goes for a nap (1 hour, if I'm lucky)
- has a snack around 3 pm (finger foods - bread, veg/fruits, cottage cheese, cheerios)
- has supper between 4:30pm-5:30 pm (finger foods - pasta, cheese, meat - we give her some of our supper, if she likes it!)
- 6:30 pm - bath, stories and another bottle (6-8 oz) before going to bed between 7-7:30pm
(She doesn't really like many vegs or fruits as 'finger' foods yet....)

My 10 mo. old's schedule
by: Amy

7:30 Wakes up, breakfast of baby oatmeal and 1 jar of fruit

10:00 - 11ish Nap, then 8oz. formula in bottle when she gets up

12:30 Lunch - meats/veggies table food and baby food

2:30 8 oz. formula (try this one in a cup, but she doesn't take it very well from a cup yet)

3 - 4ish Nap

5:00 Dinner - meats/veggies/fruit table food and baby food

7:30/8:00 8 oz. formula in bottle, goes to bed

I would like to transition to MORE table food and no bottles, but it isn't going well so far. I think I need to just trust that she will still get enough to eat even if she cuts back and won't eat as much if I quit bottles and baby food.

feeding schedule for 10mo old
by: Anonymous

I recommend the following schedule for all babies with the amounts varying depending on your child's weight, size, and appetite (every babies needs are different, but this schedule should work til they are 18mo old)

7am Wake up

7:15-7:30am Breakfast:
No bottle or pre-nursing; start
off with 4-5 ounces of formula or
breastmilk mixed with oatmeal/rice
cereal to your satisfied texture
with 2oz fruit for flavor (try to
use water in sippy to rinse down)

9:30-11:15 MORNING NAPTIME

11:15-11:30 SNACK TIME
however many oz formula/breastmilk
your baby desires (they will know
when they are full and you'll be
feeding solids soon so they won't
be starving if it's not as much as
you think they should want)

1pm Lunch:
start with an entree (4-5oz of
meat/veggies; finger foods) and
rinse with water in a sippee, then
finish with fruit (maybe 2oz) but
baby should start to slow down or
stop when full (they know better
than us)

2:30-4pm AFTERNOON NAPTIME

4pm SNACKTIME
however many oz formula/breastmilk
your baby desires (they will know
when they are full and you'll be
feeding solids soon so they won't
be starving if it's not as much as
you think they should want)

6pm Dinner:
start with an entree (4-5oz of
meat/veggies; finger foods) and
rinse with water in a sippee, then
finish with fruit (maybe 2oz) but
baby should start to slow down or
stop when full (they know better
than us)

6:30-7 Bathe, pj's, breastmilk/formula,
book, bedtime (I recommend their
bottle and then book because it
will condition the baby to go to
bed after the book is read and not
the bottle making it easier to cut
the bottle feed out completely at
1 year when they can drink milk
with their dinner)

I have twins now that are 2 and 2 mo old and another set due in 2 1/2 weeks; I swear by this schedule and used it from 6mo to 18mo and it worked like a charm --- at 18mo we slowly weaned them to 1 afternoon nap a day and then recently they quit taking naps altogether this past week on their own)

Generational feeding pattern
by: Grandma Noni

Wake 7am - 8 oz formula
7.30 - baby cereal with fresh fruit puree
9.00 - sleep
10.30 - awake - fun,play,sterile water drink from bottle 11.30
12.00 - prepared veg with either fish.chicken,cheese (pureed,)Yoghurt/fruit plus water drink from bottle
1.00 - sleep
2.30 - awake/8oz formula
5.00 - veg/fruit/carbohydrate very finely chopped
6.00 - bath
6.30 - 8 oz formula
7.00 - bed

It works for my grandchildren, both whom I have had a significant input to. Now 11 months using family food (blending some plus chopping much - at this age they need the chewing action to develop healthy gums and chewing is all part of language development) they thrive. Both girls have been/are being challenged with chewing - it is essential for the structural development of muscles in the mouth.

A little off...
by: Natalie

I know the babies thrive on schedules, and I guess we "sort of" have one, here's a rough estimate of how our day goes:

10:30am- wake up
11:00am- breakfast of cheerios, sippy of water, and fruit (papaya, banana, melon, apple) chopped into small bites or yo-baby yogurt
12:00- nap time
2:00- 6 ounces formula, green peas, small cheese bites, puffs or a piece of bread
4:30pm another bottle of 6 oz and sometimes a nap
6:30pm another "meal" in the high chair consisting of a little of whatever we are eating, usually basmati rice, sweet potatoes, and veggies or fruit cut up, sometimes I spoon feed applesauce

She goes back down to sleep (and sleeps well through the night) around 9:30-10:00pm. I am wondering if anyone has tips for transitioning the schedule so she starts going to sleep earlier? Also, we're not doing SO great with the sippy cup thing, she can't figure out she needs to tip it. Any tips for weaning off bottle? I've bought several different types of cups, the latest being the Nuby soft spout one, which has worked better than the others.

10 month old wont take sippy cup
by: Anonymous

To the lady that posted a comment about her infant not drinking from a sippy cup. I have the same problem and presently have sitting in my kitchen cupboard 8 differant styles none of which my son will drink out of. I now give him water from a normal cup (with a tea towel held under his chin) and he prefers that to any of the cups. The worst part of that is he won't be able to give himself a drink for a while yet but at least it works. Had no success with the sippy cups at all this time.
Also, to the lady that asked how to bring her daughters bedtime back so she wasn;t going to bed so late. I had the same problem and I bought off ebay a Vtech Lights & Sounds Mobile. Has worked a treat. He knows now that when it is on it means sleep time. It has 3min ,5min or 10 min run time and self activates with movement through the night so if he wakes it starts up and sends him back to sleep. Wish I had of had it from his birth. Hope this helps.

SIPPY CUP
by: Anonymous

sippy cup problems!!
my daughter wouldn't drink from a sippy cup and I was doing the same thing..giving her water from a regular cup, but I wanted her to learn to use the sippy cup. I noticed that the main problem was that she was getting frustrated because she couldn't get the liquid out of the sippy, so I decided to remove the valve from the lid. She drank like that for a week and then I put the valve back and she didn't even noticed...so now she loves her sippy cup.

Just be patient and keep trying!!

my 10 1/2 month olds schedule
by: Amzy

i feel like my daughters schedule works great for me because i work late so for all you servers who work late in the evening this may help out:

10:30 am - wake up
10:45 am - breakfast (oatmeal or rice cereal with fruit mixed in and a 6oz bottle of formula)
2 pm - an entree (stage 2 or 3) of babyfood and a 7oz bottle
7 pm - stage 2 jar veggie and fruit and some juice in sippy cup
10 pm - 7-8oz bottle then bed
i lay her down, turn on her lullaby cd and leave the room and shes out within minutes!
thats the main layout of the schedule. of course we have a snack or 2 during the day like the gerber graduates puffs or biter biscuits or dan nino yogurt and she naps when shes ready to nap but its normally no more than once a day and sometimes its only for a few minutes but when she goes to bed she SLEEPS! i don't hear a peep till around 10:30 or 11am its great!

Real Food & Real Schedules
by: Anonymous

I agree with the lady saying to feed your babies real food. Habits start from now. It's easy to make fresh food (freeze it) or if you cook wholesome meals for yourselves, just don't add the salt until your remove some for your baby.
As for shedules, babies should not be going to bed at 10pm. One day when they need to go to daycare or school, it'll be had to transition.
We got to think, what we teach them today they will be tomorrow.

Good luck.

still trying to get one down
by: Kim

We have been trying to fatten her up and I think we over succeeded so I was glad to see the comments here so we can adjust what she is eating etc because 2 1/2 lbs in two weeks is a ridiculous amount of weight to have just gained. So I think we are going to back off a bit and work towards coming up with a good pattern, seems like most you guys are doing what I would expect to be normal. Glad I found this information.

10 Month Feeding Schedule
by: Anonymous

Here is my son's schedule.

7:30am wake up

8:00am 2oz formula mixed with 1/4 oatmeal, with 1/2 of a stage 2 fruit mixed in; if he eats all of it I'll offer the rest of the fruit package; offer water

9:00am nap (1 - 2 hours)

12:00pm 4-6oz formula and stage 2 veggie; sometimes 1/2 of stage 2 fruit also; offer water

1:30pm nap (1 - 3 hours)

4:00pm 4-6oz formula and stage 2 fruit; sometimes 1-2 oz oatmeal also; offer water

5:30pm nap (until 7:00pm)

8:15pm 4-6oz formula, stage 2 dinner (meat and veggie mixed), a little of what ever we're eating for dinner, and sometimes 1-2 oz of oatmeal; offer water

8:45pm - 9:30pm bedtime - whenever he's ready

We give him finger foods and water between meals to munch on such as puffs, yogurt melts, cracker wheels, steamed carrots, sliced bananas. He prefers water and doesn't have any interest in juice. He thinks any cup with handles is meant for play and doesn't like the sippy cups. He's been able to drink from a straw since about 5-6 months so he prefers the straw cups instead.

He is 10 months and 2 weeks; 23 lbs 5 oz; 33.5 inches

baby foods

I notice from the previous comments how everyone feeds their babies from jars.
We tried this between 4 and 6 months, but really now we are happier to prepare fresh ingredients and not use convenience foods.

night nursing
by: Anonymous

My feeding schedule mimics alot of yours but does anyone else still have a problem nursing throught he night? I don't know if it because she's getting her molars but she doesnt eat as much in the day and wants to nurse more through the night. Needless to say shes up every 3-4 hrs again. Was sleeping no problem until a month ago.

Almost 10 mos.
by: Anonymous

8am: wakes up

9am: 6 oz. formula *she wants to play when she wakes, then lets me know when she wants her sippy cup*

10-10:30am: a few tbls. oatmeal, whole wheat, barley, or mixed grain cereal mixed with a bit of formula and 1 jar stage 2 fruit. Small piece of fruit (1 lg. strawberry, etc.)

11:30am-12:30pm: 6 oz. formula in sippy cup. She naps for approximately 30 mins. during this time frame.

1-1:30pm: Either 1 jar stage 3 veggie and meat, or veggie, or the Gerber "bowls" for toddlers (spaghetti-O's or the like). Also, 1 small pc. fruit.

4pm: 6 oz. formula in cup. She naps around this time.

5:30pm: 1 jar stage 3 "dinner"

6pm: Various table foods: green beans, peas, squash, small pcs. of meat, etc.

8:30pm: Bath, followed by rub down with lavender lotion

9pm: 6 oz. formula and she's down for the night.

For the duration of her play periods I have a bowl with a suction cup base on the coffee table (I think Munchkin makes the bowl I use). I keep the bowl filled with the yogurt bites, lil' crunchies, or even small pieces of fruit, like either a whole strawberry, or, if she is especially active, I will break the strawberry into pieces for her.

When her teeth are bothering her, I give her frozen fruit, like peach slices, etc. When she didn't have as many teeth (around 5-6 mos.), I would give her the frozen fruit in this "thing" that had a mesh bag for the fruit and a hard plastic base with a ring to make it easy to hold. That was when she found out that she loved strawberries.
