    Anyone want to share your 6 month old's schedule with me? I'd just like to compare it to ours and see what everyone else is doing at this age!
    Please-n-thanks!
    Leslie

    9:30 6oz bottle
    12:30 cereal and stage 2 fruit(1 jar shared) plus 4oz bottle after
    3:30 6oz bottle
    6:30 stage 2 veggie and stage 2 fruit (2 jars of each)
    8:30 bath time (every other night)
    9:00 6oz bottle and bed immediately after

    I didn't include naps because they usually nap some between each meal, but the length of naps is very unpredictable!

    I'm in the middle of changing their schedule, so this is what we are doing now....not what it will be in a couple of weeks:

    7am - 7oz bottle
    9am - nap
    11am - 7 oz bottle and cereal
    12ish - cat nap (i want this moved to 1pm)
    2ish - cat nap
    3pm - 7 oz bottle
    4ish - cat nap
    6pm - bath/jammies
    6:30pm - 7 oz bottle, cereal and a fruit/veggie
    7pm - baby einstein
    7:30pm - bed

    I am trying to follow HSHHC. At this age, they say to try and do a 9am, 1pm and a later afternoon nap. I can't seem to get them to 1pm without them just falling asleep. They need another snooze at the 2ish time, but I think that's just residual habit from the old schedule. They take a pretty good nap around 4 (about an hour). My hope is that we can get this nailed down soon!

    Mine will be adjusted 6 months in two 1/2 weeks so I thought I'd chime in...

    6:30 am wake
    7:30 bottle (7oz)
    8:30 solids (try new food or cereal - 2 T each)
    9:00 nap
    10:30 play
    11:30 bottle (7oz)
    12:30 nap
    2:30 play
    3:30 bottle (6oz)
    4:30 cat nap
    5:00 play
    5:30 solids (4T each fruit/veggie and/or cereal)
    6:00 bath
    6:30 bottle (8oz)
    7:00 bed

    They rarely drink all of their bottles - but this is what we offer them...

    My guys are pretty consistent at this schedule...
    Wake up between 530 and 630 and 7 oz bottle
    9:30 7 oz and stage 2 fruit (one each)
    12:30 7 oz
    3:30 7 oz and stage 2 veggie (one each)
    6:30 7 oz bottle and oatmeal then bed by 7 pm
    No waking through the night right now- once in a while have an ugly 4 am wake-up but will fall back asleep till 530 or 630.

    Most of the time they almost finish all 7 oz.- but 1 or 2 times a day leave 2oz. And the solids... they would probably eat more if I gave it to them- they love it!!! They look like little birdies with their mouths open when they see the spoon!!!

    HI there!

    My girls will be 6 months on Tuesday and here is our schedule:

    7:00 AM Wake-up

    8:00 AM Breakfast Bottle (7oz) and Oatmeal mixed with fruit (about 2 oz total for each)

    9:45 AM Nap time (they only usually sleep about 35 minutes)

    11:15 AM Lunch Bottle (7oz) and fruit (we are on stage 2 and they usually get about 2oz each)

    12:45 or 1:00 PM (depending on how cranky we are) nap time. They have only been sleeping maybe 45 minutes here, but today for the first time, they are both sleeping right bow and it has been almost 2 hours!!!! Mommy even got a nap in today!

    3:15 PM Snack Bottle (5 oz) Somtimes I get one more little nap in around 5:00 but if that happens, it is becuase I put them in the swings and it is usually only like 20 minutes.

    6:15 or 6:30 (depending on if it is a bath night)PM Dinner Bottle (8oz) and Veggies (again, usually about 2 oz each)

    6:45 PM Bath time (we bathe them every other night)

    7:00 ish PM Bed-time
