Schedule: Eating and Sleeping for Babies at 6 Months to 9 Months Old | CloudMom

[@melissandrade]

Great video. I used to do top up feed. If baby woke. But now she sleeps all night. Bed time 7/7:30pm. And wakes the next morning 6:30/7:00 am. She just turned 6 months

[@cloudmom]

itsMelissa wow - can i have your schedule?? Keep it up!

[@cutep742]

My son also sleeps through the night, I usually feed him through out the day. I usually cook soup , then I give him fruits after his soup.

[@anypaolamurillo8969]

itsMelissa lucky I wish.... my baby used to sleep from 12-6 now she is waking up at 3 :(

[@npm1421]

How do u do sleep training? I try every method seem not to work with him?

[@evitaevita98]

Your videos are always on point! I'm surprised that you don't have more followers!

[@cloudmom]

Thanks so much for saying that, Eva! Appreciate you watching my videos!!

[@godschildren6316]

Eva C I feel the same way

[@BlueSky-cj3cf]

Team Queen’ s Fearn Tucker and Bentley Forever wow. She’s referring to breast milk...

[@BlueSky-cj3cf]

[@AmirahKay]

Hi. I came on KZbin with stress as I came from baby's monthly checkup and was told that her weight is bad, it's been around 7kg for 3weeks now, I got scared coz iv only been feeding her baby soft foods like purity food"cereal and bottle food, coz I had no idea wat to feed her, but after searching in finding your video I am glad coz now I hav a feeding schedule n now know dat I hav to give a her solids. Thank you sooo much. N da naps n sleeping schedule are a bonus coz she sleeps redomly n wen eva she pleases but no more coz I also need some "me" time. Love from S.A

[@melissah.2393]

My son (almost 7 mo) takes a nap every 2 to 3 hrs only for about 30-45 minutes usually. Sometimes very rarely 1 hr. And I feed him baby food 3 times a day usually right between feeding breastmilk. Which is still about every 2-3 hrs. He still wakes often at night.

[@rosymendez9996]

Very accurate! I use baby log to keep up with her schedule . Love that app, has sleep time, diaper time, feeding time (breast or bottle) and play time

[@florescobedo7732]

my 4-month-old is already following this schedule with an additional cat nap and sleeping through the night. YAY

[@cloudmom]

YAY!!! Great job!

[@PeppermintPat]

Going through this now with my 6.5 month old. He is still resisting solids for the most part though. I will try this schedule, thank you!

[@palmina77italiana]

I love this video. Your schedule for your baby is exactly the same as what my baby does...except he BF and eats solids at 5 pm and his bath / BF and bedtime is at 7 - 7 : 30 pm.

[@cloudmom]

Thanks!! and thanks so much for watching, Palmina D'Alessandro!

[@ColleenG594]

Melissa, thank you so nunch for giving me an idea on what a schedule for feeding and introducing solids looks like. With my first two they pretty much set their own schedule so I didn't have to worry but with my baby number 3, it's been so difficult. I used this general schedule you set and now life is so much easier. Thank you! I appreciate all your videos and can't wait for what's to come in the next ones. Biggest loves from my family to yours!

[@cloudmom]

Colleen Gomez SO happy to hear the schedule helped you!! xo M

[@melmckenna4599]

I'm trying to do this today. I started with the milk and solids 7 and 7:30am couldn't get him to bed till 10:30am.This is not to say it's a complete disaster, as you say it's only a guide but the idea is definitely going to work I'm really determined!

[@fiordolce3250]

I have always had problems with belly fat. After just one month of following diet plan from *Next Level Diet*, I can almost see my six pack. Don't wait, take your plan now!

[@12Missmimmy12]

with this 6-9 months how many oz would you normally do?

[@nld410]

I really benefitted from these videos. Son is now 18 months and transistioning to one nap. Any advice on a a schedule once one nap occurs...Schedule for 19 month old? :)

[@feliciajohn7660]

my baby sleeps at 7pm and will sleep through the night till 7.30 to 8 am. I am just worried that she will be super hungry in the morning sometimes I feed her while she's half awake. It's just my instinct that she's hungry.

[@lailaanju4817]

So good and realistic video, most other video just depressed me that I may not able to do my best as a mother, those video make high expectation level but in real life we get little from our child :( but ur video is different, so clear cut & optimistic too.

[@teresapaterson2804]

Forgot to add, Sophie sleeps through the night, usually waking at 06:30 to 07:00 and I began weaning at 4 months as milk wasn't satisfying her anymore x

[@serkalmabebe5633]

Thank you very useful information and schedule I am going to use this schedule

[@loveandlightjourney]

Hi Cloud Mom. I love watching your videos. I am needing some help. My LO will be 5 months in 2 weeks. She is feeding at night every 3 to 4 hours and also threw the day. She is having 7 to 8 bottles a day ranging from 4 to 6 oz. She is growing like a weed and has acid reflux. She has almost out grown her 9 month pajamas and almost out grown her 6 months clothes. She is always hungry or seems to be always hungry. She's eating solids and rice cereal in breastmilk fed in bottles. Do you have any advice on feeding and nap schedule. She just went to napping only twice a day and sleeps in crib from 9:30pm - 10pm until 8 sometimes longer but wakes sometime every hr. having to go in put her back to sleep then up again every 3-4 hrs for her feedings?? I feel like I'm all over the place with her feedings and naps. I would like to get her on a schedule. Should I follow and older babies schedule as her body is that of a 9-12 month old?

[@aperrytree4469]

very helpful, thank you!! Loving your channel, so glad i found it. i dont really have anyone i can ask these kinds of things to so what you do is a huge blessing. :D

[@suendamaiyu1583]

Just stared feeding my baby solid food yesterday and I notice am not giving him enough formula .thanks from tomorrow il try using that schedule that that he can get enough nutrients

[@melmckenna4599]

I am so going to try this my husband and i are getting tired of waking up during the night multiple times

[@michellecortez38]

My baby totally wakes up 4 5 times at night to eat this started since he was 5 months he use to be so good in his crib now he refuses to sleep alone. Idk if is because I'm pregnant [I recently found out] but omg

[@maimoonalatif3775]

[@rineeshap.v.8420]

Thank you so much. Really great idea 👍👍👍

[@TheRealLydiaSenn]

How on earth??? I can't get my eight month old (who is on solids) to go longer than 2-3 hours between breast feedings. He also wakes up 3-5 times a night! I'm dying over here.

[@surakshakharel1957]

Thank you mom it's so sweet.

[@sushmadoguparti8002]

Nice video darling 😘 Am looking how to start solid food for my 6 months baby

[@diamanteehijab1406]

my baby is 5 months she sleeps from 9pm till 9am and wakes for one feed at around 5to7 am....however she takes only one nap a day at around 2 pm and sleeps for an hour. she has her good days when she sleeps twice for an hour or a bit more but mistly shr doesnt sleep a lot...it seems to me like she wants to but cant....sleep regression has passed already that was even harder....she slept only 15mins during the day.....I am guessing she always has some kind of problems like gas or teething pain or reflux ....because clearly o her good days when nothing bothers her she is a perfect baby! wish there were mor days like that....

[@irinabutovetsky4304]

very help full information!!! when would you schedule a bath for a baby if you would know that the baby had acid reflex (so feed has to be after a bath not before)

[@leelam9043]

How do you know how many times they suppose to feed and nap. Is it from your doctor?

[@MaKaylaJ26]

Hi there! Is it okay to feed before sleep?

[@samanthajohnson389]

How do I get my baby to take longer naps?

[@LoversofChrist21]

Thank you :)

[@stephem93]

Hi Melissa. I don't think my question is mentioned in your video so here I'll ask :) how do I know how much solid food per each feeding to feed? She is a few days shy of 6 months. I've begun her on avocado twice today. Breakfast and Lunch ( after breastmilk bottle). I'd like to know the quantity of solid food she should be having per feeding. E. G. 8 spoons

[@prettylilmuma]

My baby has just turned 6 months & from birth she has not had the 'catnap', she will just go down to sleep from 6-7pm & then only wake again for her 2am feeding. Should I be waking her after 45mins so that she has a better sleeping & eating routine for the next coming months?

[@landtolive]

my daughter is about 7m and still feeds like every 2 hours. though a lot of the time I think she can make three. she doesn't hardly nap either. and wakes up 3 times through the night. I give up at 2am and bring her in bed and do a continuous bfeeding

[@thuhuongnguyen4318]

I am struggling with my 7m boy. He naps only 30minutes twice a day. And he wakes up so many times during the night. He started eating solid when he was 5m. However, he has no interest in his food. so sad. I am breastfeeding him. He doesn't take bottles. He is only 15th percentage. I am frustrated. HELP.

[@geekgoddess3738]

Would it be too much to give the baby 6-7 oz in between the feedings?

[@Kira-sh9eh]

Thanks. My baby is 5 months and weve been giving her tastes of solids once a day. 3 day rule. Ill do about ten spoonfuls once a day followed by her bottle until she trys everything. Was curious when shell be eating once the solids are in there. I need to look for something that has how much to give her at each solids feeding because Im unsure. She sleeps 11:30 at night until 9-9:30AM. naps after morning bottle. Wakes for the day around 11. Takes a short hour nap once or twice a day.

[@cloudmom]

Ariel Jones sounds like a great schedule! For a 5 month old, my dr said you are just starting out and trying to get them used to the tastes and textures, and not to worry too much about quantity. As they get bigger, the solids become more important. What did your dr say? Good luck with your baby!

[@brittm1710]

Do you move second nap up of morning nap is only 1 hour?

[@migotkaize]

how much milk between meals ?

[@npm1421]

My son only drink 4 oz even I wait 4hrs. What can I do to make him drink more so I feel comfortable to not feeding him at night?

[@Dewy1420]

Thanks

[@taratags4499]

My 7.5 month old is eating full blown meals, is that bad? His milk intake is right around 29oz/day. Should I just let him eat all he wants? We are doing a hybrid BLW, with some purees.

[@yulingyong2201]

Thank you so much for info, the time is fit exactly to my baby routine. but throughout the night he keep toss n turn n cry unless I feed him in bed for few minutes then he went back sleep. Thank you

[@YM21X]

Love your videos! Can you please help me... how much solid do I give my 6 months old? Is it about 1 oz? More less? Thank you

[@mbithimbithi1076]

Love your channel....its been very helpful. Question: when does water come in and how?

[@HomemakerHowTo]

My baby just started eating solids and is sleeping longer stretches. To maintain my milk supply, how often should I get up at night to feed or pump?

[@tanushriroy3982]

Hi,Melissa great video .I certainly picked up some key points. My son is 15 month old now.So what variations should be incorporated in his schedule?

[@pristinegeneralcc2015]

Cloud mom! I have a question how many ounces of baby gerber should the baby be eating in total?

[@lemontree0216]

This is very helpful

[@npm1421]

My baby 6 months old doesn't like to eat or drink .Even after 4hrs I still have to force him to drink his formula. Pls help

[@2hot4that1]

For the milk feeding could six ounces be to much then thirty mins later feeding him his jar food or should i just do 4 ounces of milk?

[@katherynkirkland6252]

What if the baby wakes at night? And is hungry?

[@stephanies6542]

I love you but my baby is asleep by 6:30 pm and sleeps til 7am. She has been doing this since 6 weeks old and just turned 5 months. I guess for me the "catnap" you have listed seems late. I need the baby to go to sleep for "me time!" Lol :)

[@cloudmom]

Stephanie S ok you are rocking it, mama! That is a great night's sleep for that age! I don't think the normal schedule applies to you. I think you can do 5 feedings in those 12 daytime hours, is that what you are doing?

[@ssanders7511]

melissa, my five month old takes 3, 30-35 mins per day. she usually sleeps from 8pm-7am. Is there anything I can do to try and get her to nap?

[@lali1119]

Can you make a video on solid foods a 10-12 month baby could have. Thank you :D

[@naheedsarwar8878]

thanks it really helpful

[@arthurmain5522]

thx for that helpful vedio :) my baby is only having 180 ml every 6 hours and ends up only by having 4 feeds 720 ml ....what i read that he should have 150to 200 per kilo and he is not almost 8 kgs so he must take 1200 ml :( plz tell me if that ok ?

[@msmart100]

I love your videos and site. This schedule seems so awesome! How do you put baby on a schedule like this? My baby is 6 months and just started solids. I feel like he is still sporadic when he sleeps and when he nurses. Any help or insight would be greatly appreciated!

[@monicavictor82]

Scheduling a breastfed baby is the easiest way to cause problems with supply! Every mom has a different storage capacity, and even between babies! And every baby is different both compared to other babies AND over their development of how much they can transfer at a time!

[@blancaescobar6004]

thank you

[@taylorlindseyyoung111]

Thank you so much for this, my biggest issue is nighttime so I’m going to definitely try the top off feed. Do you recommend giving them 4 or 6 oz for formula fed babies around 6 months at 11pm?

[@kidsfunplace1712]

My 9 old baby vomits when I try to give him any kind of food. Does someone has any idea what should I do?

Does anyone follow this schedule to a T? How is it working out? My son is down for the night by 6pm but he wakes 2x a night 😭

[@taylortwinsandpreslie8662]

My breast fed baby can never go 4 hours between feeds and she's 7.5 months old.

[@sibr4111]

Maybe you don't produce enough milk?

[@landtolive]

so this schedule is great my 6m did a good job with and napping yesterday! though from 10 - 12 she kept waking up. So I did the top off feed at 11 or 12. she woke up at 1:30 or 2ish. I'm used to going in at 2 am feeding her in our bed and falling asleep. That's how I sleep from 2:30- 6, or 7. Then she will wake at around 5 or 6am I put her in her crib at that time so I can get one more hour of sleep. it's so hard to get her to stay asleep longer through the night. I try the whole patting and rubbing her head to get her to sleep in her crib, but it takes like an hour and a half. I get frustrated.... Help pleae?! I don't have the money to buy one of those stinking sleep programs.

[@biljanaelayan4381]

Omg,same like my baby, and he is nearly 9 months old...When I read your comment it feels like you I was writing it... :O

[@Clutterfreecarli]

This was super helpful! I was wondering how often I should be feeding and putting my six month old to sleep, so this helped alot! I was wondering if you had any advice for me as far as solids go. My LO was having reactions to every solid I tried giving him, my pediatrician said I can hold off until even nine months feeding solids but my guy seems like he is ready, he loved it when I was feeding him and he seems hungry all the time. I'm just confused as to what I should do

[@bouchrafehli6690]

This video is great! My baby has the same schedule, but when can I give my baby water? And how much water he should have? My baby is 7months. Also Stool does not come out every day since he start eating solid food! I need your advise pls. Thank you

[@jillciesielczyk4389]

I've been giving my 6 month a little water from a cup or sippy cup after her in between breakfast and lunch. only a little so she gets the concept of drinking water. This was suggested by her pediatrician. since I've started baby on solids, she's been having about 3 poopy diapers per day!

[@bouchrafehli6690]

Thanks for your answer 😙

[@Tacostq21]

[@جيجيصلاح-ظ9د]

What's the best feeding and sleeping schedule for a one month baby pls I'm tired of waking up every two hours and feed him all the time 😞😞😞

[@lovejay3157]

At this stage its to early to give them a eating sleeping schedule.. You just have to make sure that they are well fed and changed and that all is well with them throughout the night.. At around three months they should start to sleep longer hours throughout the nights so just be patient and hang in there! Being a new parent can be challenging but just remember we all were babies and our parents or others that took care of you had to go through the same things 😊 keep the FAITH say your PRAYERS GOD BLESS

[@samiaoran8644]

My baby doesn't like eating after having his nappy

[@rionarisha6028]

my baby is 6 months old already. and she sleep late night about 1 am then she will wake up the nxt afternoon 12pm ... but wen she wake up she dont even want to drink milk... im worried couse sje lossing more weight .. even i force her to deink her milk she just cry .. so wat i did is i just feed her solid food and wait for her to sleep and feed her the milk cause when she awake she dont want to drink her milk ..any advice

[@nehamalhotra874]

my baby had the same issue ..however i consulted do tr fr d same .. it ws gastric isue .. he recomended neopeptin drops onxe at night .5ml.. n she z doin fine by den ..not rejexting feeds

[@didilago]

I love your schedules, but when and how do you understand when to stop waking baby at 11pm? Mine is 3 month now , feeds 5 times a day and sleeps from 11pm to 8am :-)

[@didilago]

*just breastfeeding

[@jillciesielczyk4389]

+didilago My pediatrician suggest to just let baby sleep once you lay them down for bed at this age. This will get them in the habit of sleeping throughout the whole night. when my LO was 3 months, we would have her in bed around 8-830, and wouldn't wake her up until the next morning. Granted she was formula fed, we would feed her around every 3 hours until bed time

[@hambarhernandez3939]

hey I need help in the morning she wakes at 5am or 7am breastfeed her And then she sleeps and 10am or 11am formula feeding of 6oz and she's is 5months and then she don't sleep no more and she eat gain 1pm or2pm feeding 5p or 6 feeding times 9p or 10 pm feeding time but I breastfeed her but she doesn't get full

[@lubnakashif9644]

my 7 month old wakes up after an hour at night what should I do?

[@balance-x602]

lubna kashif let him cry a few mins to see if he goes back to sleep on his own

[@teresapaterson2804]

I think I've been very lucky with Sophie, she has naturally fallen into the sleeping patterns you've suggested on your video, feeding however is very different, for example, we have breakfast at 07:00 which consists of baby cereal, with some fresh fruit puree followed by milk, lunch is at 12:00 where we kick off with solids and finish off with milk, dinner at 17:00 of solids followed by milk, then as you've suggested we start her bedtime routine at 19:00 with bath, story and milk so she's usually in bed for 20:00. I've found that she's happier on solids and doesn't want as much milk even though it is constantly offered throughout the day. I do however give her baby vitamins (vitabiotics well l kid) which are recommended by the Department of Health, I'm in the UK though so how I've weaned Sophie maybe different to your standards z

[@aikaryna]

Hey! My baby only naps once and sometimes twice a day for only 10-20 mins. Also, she sleeps late and wakes up early. I am worried and also she still wakes up 3-4 times at night. :(

[@santosh2152]

even I have same problem with my 7months baby

[@lillypetals5762]

Ciara Pirote you might have to sleep train your baby. There will be lots of crying in the beginning but it will subside. At her age she needs at least 12 hours of sleep. Anything less is harmful.

[@ElysianWorld]

Wow. 4 times a day at 6 months? My doc recommended 7 oz of formula every 5 -6 hours. So I guess I’m not giving my baby enough milk 😫

[@cloudedcolour5329]

24 divided by 6 is 4, so it's 4 times a day and 7x4is 28oz a day

[@sarahsallam6971]

WAIT WHAT?! Apparently I’m doing everything wrong...why do people expect all babies be the same EVERY day?! Me as an adult have different schedules every day 🤦🏽‍♀️

[@paolaessentials4789]

my baby 6 month Olds i'm maybe over feeding my baby I don't know my schedule 6 am bottle feeding 9am baby cereal and then 6 oz of formula nap like 20 min or so 12am half jar of veggies gerber/6 oz formula 20 min nap 3 am 7 oz formula nap maybe 6am last feeding half gerber Eather fruit or veggies 6 oz bottle sleeping time 7 am to next morning

[@lillypetals5762]

Paola Quin mine is 5 months...and I have an identical schedule to yours. I feed him early morning between 4 or 6. 8 am 4 to 6 tablespoons of fruit, cereal, and 2 Oz milk. 9 am breastfeed 930 nap...11 or 12 solids 3 tablespoons with 2 oz milk of veggies then breast milk. 2 breast milk, 430 6 tablespoons fruit, cereal, and 2 Oz milk, 615 breastfeed... he empties both breasts at this time. 715 bed... middle of night feed sometimes both breasts are emptied. I pump during the day from one breast and I get between 4 to 6 Oz. he likes solids so I just add the milk to his food... I don't know if it is appropriate to give him so much food. the very first time he had cereal he ate 4 tablespoons in 5 minutes.

[@LulasticHippyshake]

Wow, I don't really agree with this in anyway?! Children communicate with us about their sleep and hunger needs and we should listen and respond, not tell them to wait. It can be really damaging.
