Imogen is nearly 10 mths old and is not a big eater but this is what she has on a daily basis:
7am - 7oz bottle
8am - weetabix and toast
10am - snack of fruit (maybe half banana/apple or raisins)
11.30am - protein lunch of chicken cass or shepherds pie etc (size equiv to 3 cubes) followed by yoghurt or fruit
2pm - 7oz bottle
4.30pm - tea which could be anything like pasta, jkt pot with cheese, sandwiches followed by fruit
6.45pm - 8oz bottle
As i said she isn't a big eater but as long as she is happy and healthy then thats all that matters. Hope this helps.

Sounds like you made the right choice changing Aimee's milk as it prob will have been filling her up as its thicker. Imogen has cow & gate follow on milk (stage 3? purple carton). She never finishes her bottles during the day so i make sure she has plenty of cheese, yoghurts etc as these all go towards their daily milk intake which at this age should be approx 18floz. I home cook her food as i personally find it cheaper, i just do batches of it then freeze it. What i do with the jkt potato is scoop out the potato and mix it with cheese and butter then put it back into the potato skin, feed her the potato then see if she chews on the skin (although she never seems to get very far but its funny to watch!).
