For those that make/freeze your own baby food

How many cubes is your DC eating at each meal and are they also getting cereal? My DD is 7 months old and seems to be getting hungrier and I have started adding a 3rd meal to the day, but wasn't really sure what the norm was for the number of cubes per meal, especially if I give oatmeal also.

DS has been eating about two full cubes plus cereal or three cubes (without cereal) at a meal. He has been eating three meals a day since six months old, per his pediatrician.

She gets two fruit cubes for breakfast at daycare with cereal, two veggie/meat cubes for lunch at daycare and two veggie/meat cubes for dinner at home. Sometimes I also give her cereal at dinner.

Re: For those that make/freeze your own baby food

DS is 7 3/4 months and gets (for the most part):

Breakfast... about a tablespoon of cereal, mixed with BM, half yo baby yogurt (gave him while he was on antibiotics and he likes it) and 1-2 cubes fruit.

Lunch... other half of yo baby yogurt and 2-3 cubes veggie/fruit

Dinner... about a tablespoon of cereal mixed with BM, 2 cubes veg, 2 cubes fruit.

Some meals he'll eat it all and take more. Some meals he'll eat nothing and nurse. Or somewhere in the middle.

Today for lunch he had just a whole yogurt, apple and sweet potato flavor.
