How old is Baby? R will be 8 months next Saturday.
What size clothes is baby wearing? 9 months.
How many times does baby eat during the night? Zero
If you bottle feed, how many ounces does baby eat per feeding? 7 ounces, 4x/day - sometimes there is a fifth bottle
What is favorite food? Sweet potatoes, carrots, mum mums
Least favorite food? Peaches, pears
How many solid food meals does baby eat per day? Usually, 1-2. I’ve been giving her two packs of mum mums in the morning while I make my breakfast/eat. Sometimes, I give a purée if I have time. Then she sometimes gets another meal from H or I.
Is baby crawling? No, she’s rolling a lot. She hasn’t sat up on her own yet, either.
How many teeth does baby have? Two bottom, but seems to be teething hard.
Favorite book? None. T loved Brown Bear a lot. T also really liked books with real pictures in them.. like, first words, colors, numbers. But, those were after she was a year.
Favorite toys? R loves toys. Balloons are probably her favorite. We have a basket of small toys we rotate out. I just gave it to her and she’s been rummaging through that for 20+ minutes.
Does your baby have a crib soother? If so, which one? She uses a pacifier in the crib and has the sea horse.
Do you have a teether that your baby loves? She just chews on everything.
Is your baby afraid of strangers? When people come over and try to pick her up before she’s ready then she’ll cry. But, generally she’s a happy baby and likes seeing people.
Has baby gone swimming? Did they enjoy it? No
Is baby is infant car seat or convertible carseat? Infant seat still. I think we’re going to buy T a new 5 point harness booster seat and give R her convertible since there should still be 3-4 until expiration.
Do you have a convertible carseat? Which one? Do you like it? Evenflo Symphony. MIL bought them for us and I can’t complain.
Does your baby wear shoes? The Nike ones sometimes. But, she usually kicks them off. I’m not worried about shoes until she really starts walking - which for T was 16 months.

Looks like most of these babies hate green beans 😂😂
Also maybe I’m starving mine with 4 ounce bottles? Y’all seem to feed more ounces in bottles but wasn’t sure who FF or BF since formula would usually be more I think. I don’t pump more than 4 ounces a session usually, sometimes 5. I know a pump doesn’t indicate what baby takes from nursing so who knows.

jt2378 I think formula is usually more. Baby H was consistently at 4 oz on bm but I was having supply issues and he started getting more and more formula and his oz intake has crept up with that.

Oh and we have the graco milestone convertible carseat but haven't used it yet. We need a second one so I'm looking for recommendations. Both of our infant carriers go to 35 pounds which he will never reach but only 30 incbes. He is already 28 inches so i sorry he will outgrow them soon.
