what would you do...

Me and Max have our first baby sensory class tomorrow (yay!) But problem is he always has his milk around 1, and the class starts at 1. Due to his reflux I have to keep him upright for 20 mins after feeding, and feeding can take 15 mins so that's nearly class over..

Do I try feeding him at say half 12 so he's eaten before we go? I hate feeding him if he's not signalling he's hungry.. I could try moving the 10am feed a little earlier too

Does anyone else feed at certain times for reasons like this? I feel bad like I'm forcing him to eat to fit in with my plans lol

No don't feel bad. I quite often feed Harry to suit droning on where we're going.

I did it today as we went to a baby sensory play thing and he would of been due a feed as soon as we got there so I just topped him up before we left- which was only about an hour after I'd last fed him

I just think of it a bit like us. I'd had my breakfast but then ate a banana to keep me going

 

[My1stBaby]

Yeah thats true, I usually would book or plan things around his feeding times and it just so happens that most of the time his feeding never interrupts it (apart from like a day out obvs)

I'm sure he'll still take it half hour earlier, he might just have a bit less maybe

Harry doesn't usually feed as much if he has it a bit earlier but then I just try and give him another little top up to get back on track to suit time of day etc

H has his feed at 11.30 which is the same time as sensory so I feed him before we go then just readjust the feed times for the rest of the day. Some people feed their lo's there but I think it is a waste tbh as they miss so much. Also if he has his bottle then he will be happier for the class!!

I'm always giving Tyler top ups before we go out to places.

Yeah, I would change feeding times slightly, you don't want both of you to miss out.
