The other morning she was still hungry after her cereal for breakfast so I gave her fruit in addition to the cereal. I think I will probably add a fruit with cereal soon and keep the veggie for later in the day. As for quantity she is still ok with 1/2 jar so I will keep to that for now.

Isabella is having a total of 1 1/2 of jarred foods. I wonder if I am giving her too much. She would eat the whole jar if I let her. What do you think?

30-33 oz of formula a day

Breakfast: Cereal 4 tbls

Lunch: Half of veggie jar

Dinner: Half of veggie jar

I haven't started fruits yet because I read somewhere that once they taste fruit they don't want veggies.

Do you find that to be true? I was thinking of starting fruit soon.

DS will be 5 months next wed. and he is still just on formula. He has 35oz a day, 7oz every 3 hours. I did try cereal but I dont think he is ready for it. Although I did try again and he ate it. Now he is sick so I want to wait until he is better to continue with it.

she's in the 50%tile for weight, so I don't think that's an issue. I'll keep on doing what I'm doing, and mention it to my ped at the end of this month.ThanksChat Icon

Isabella doesn't mind the veggies, she likes them both equally. I think I've got a ham on my hands!

Re: 5 month old mommies come in!

Julia is 6 months now - but at 5 months - we were giving her cereal 3 times a day - breakfast 3-4 tbsp w/fruit, for lunch - 3-4 tbsp with veggies and some fruit, for dinner 3-4 tbsp with veggies and fruit.

Each time we offered her a bottle and she drank about 6 oz of it after 1/2 hour or more later.

I also would give her a few ounces of water in her sippy cup each day.

I've made my own food - so i just eyeball an amount of veggie/fruit for her - probably a few tbspoons.
