What happens to milk feeds when you drop from 3 naps to 2? In this episode, Sally and Bec walk through how they restructure the day—so that milk feeds, solids, and naps all work together (not against each other). Whether you're breastfeeding or bottle-feeding, these are the changes we make to support longer stretches of sleep, bigger solids meals, and more confidence overnight.
What You’ll Learn
How many milk feeds your baby needs after the 3–2 nap transition
Why we drop the 11am feed—and what to offer instead
How to create appetite for both solids and milk without conflict
How the afternoon feed schedule helps with overnight sleep
What to do when solids start disrupting milk intake (or vice versa)
