8 month olds---- feeding question

could you give me your childs menu (example) also how many bottles and how many oz..

Re: 8 month olds---- feeding question

DD gets either 4 or 5 7oz bottles per day. Sometimes she doesn't drink all of it.

Breakfast - 2 Tbsp of cereal and half jar stage 2 or 3 fruit. (Just started on stage 3). If I have a banana, I will mash that up.

Lunch - 1/2 jar of stage 2 or 3 food with meat (Turkey and/or chicken with veggies.

Dinner - 2 Tbsp of cereal and half jar stage 2 or 3 veggie.

If we are eating healthy, I will try to cut tiny pieces so she can experience new tastes/textures. I just bought an avocado that I am going to try feeding her tonight.

Re: 8 month olds---- feeding question

4- 5oz bottles

breakfast: 3 tbsp cereal with 1 stage 2 fruit (mix with prune juice because we have pooping issues here)

Lunch: stage 2 veg, yogurt (if still hungry)

Dinner: Stage 2 meat/veg combo, fruit

Snacks: gerber puffs, cherrios, raisens

I also try different foods at different times. If I am eating chicken I give him little bites. He likes laughing cow cheese.
Other things: watermelon, cantalope, grapes (all in mesh thing)
