    I try to give DS something to eat before he goes down for a sleep - a sort of 'mini-lunch'. This doesn't always happen though - like this morning he fell asleep in the pram when we went out for a walk, so he just went straight down. Same usually happens if we've been out and he falls asleep in the car on the way home. But if I can, I give him food beforehand, and then something when he wakes up too.

    :yeahthat: - i give DD "brunch" or a bigger breakfast depending on her wake up time...she gets up anywhere between 7am and 9am so if its 7am i'll give her a light breakfast then follow with the brunch option at about 11am. But if its 9am i give her a bigger breakfast so that if she does get sleepy by midday/12.30pm and hasn't had food at least she's had a good breakfast to tide her over until dinner which for her now is between 4.30-5.00pm - sometimes though she's not tired at midday so i give her lunch then and then put her down for her nap at about 1.00-1.30pm - it all depends on her!
