My son is now 8 months old and having 2-3 solid meals a day. He still has breastmilk on demand but generally only wants it when he is tired so he ends up having a feed before I put him down for each of his naps. Is this enough? I am a bit worried that I am starting bad habits by feeding before every nap. Also still waking in the night for a feed... Is this normal? x

My son is 9 months and he nurses to sleep everytime, unless we are in the car. But, he nurses 2 to 3 times a day in addition to nap time. At this point, they know when they are hungry, but you should still be nursing about an hour before you offer solids. My son still wakes 2 to 3 times a night to nurse.
