That's about right, but the ounces varied depending on her mood. I also incorporated Fruit Puffs in there, to introduce her to finger food.

Kiera is about 7 months and her schedule is:

Early morning: 6 oz. bottle

Breakfast: cereal with stage 2 jar of fruit & 3 oz. bottle

Lunch: Stage 2 jar of meat & veggie combined & 3 oz. bottle

Early afternoon: 6 oz. bottle

Dinner: Ceral & stage 2 jar of fruit & I usually nurse her so figure about 2-3 ounces.

Angela just doesn't like to have her formula!
7 am - 4 ounces formula
8 am - 3 ounces cereal, half jar fruit or half banana
10:30am 4 ounces formula
12pm 4 ounces formula, 1/2 jar veggies and 1/2 jar fruit
3pm-maybe 6 ounces
5pm-3 ounces cereal and 1/2 jar veggies
7:30pm-4 ounces formula
her formula is always made in 6-7 ounce portions, but she never finishes them

Re: Can anyone share their feeding schedule for an 8 month

are you breastfeeding or formula feeding?
I also think it really depends on how much food you have introduced. Molly was given cereal in the morning, a fruit in the afternoon, and a veggie (sometimes mixed with fruit too) for dinner. I usually mixed some cereal in the fruit/veggies. I made my food so I used 1 or 2 cubes for each meal.
