1. Need advice re solids/feeding schedule
--------------------------------------------------------

I'm feeling lost and confused about feeding now that
solids are in the mix. My twins are 7 months old and
have had solids for about two months. They love
everything so far (avocado, banana, sweet potato, peas,
green beans, oatmeal) and seem hungry for bigger
portions. But when I feed them larger portions, about
10 minutes later they seem uncomfortable and over-full.
I'm having the same issue with how many oz of pumped
milk/formula to give them when I'm at work and in
evening, for a feeding that I'm switching to bottle.
Larger portions and more solid eating sessions has also
meant constipation, so I've backed off.Can you share
your schedule for when your twins were around the same
age? Mine is below - along with more questions!7:30 a
nurse(was giving them oatmeal and sometimes prunes
directly after, but dropped that after a few days)9 -
10:30 nap10:30 6 oz (nurse on weekends)10:45
solids12:30ish nap2:00 6 oz (nurse on weekends)(nanny
sometimes gives them second solids around 2:30)5:30 6
oz7:00 bedtime/short nurseI have so many questions and
don't know where to turn for answers. The nurse at my
pediatrician's office is surly and unhelpful about this
type of thing. Is yours helpful (should I switch
doctors?) How big should portions be? If I'm feeding
them fresh veggies is it possible to over feed them or
will they stop when full? How so I get them to start
moving towards breakfast lunch and dinner as set meals
and avoid snacking habits?
