5-7 month old moms-- Eating schedule for solids??
The twins are 7.5 months (5 months adjusted) and was just wondering what your schedule is when it comes to solids for them? How much and how often?

Re: 5-7 month old moms-- Eating schedule for solids??
We started solids at 6m and the Ped said she should be just practicing with them until 9 months, not to replace any formula/breastmilk.
She gets solids 1-3x a day... about a half of a jar... no real schedule since we're just practicing.
But I feel like I'm the only one that is this haphazard about them

DS feeds every hour and a half from about 5 am to 10 am eating between sleeping. Then we do oatmeal mixed with BM about noon, fruit about 3, veggie about 8. He still nurses in between and gets a big 8oz bottle around 9:30 to go to sleep. It's totally on his schedule.

DS is 7.5 months. Mid-morning he has 4 tablespoons of oatmeal and a Stage 1 fruit. Mid-afternoon he has a Stage 2 veggie. He doesn't always finish that, but sometimes will. We try to give him the solids after nursing, or about an hour after, since that is still the most important thing.
In the next couple of months we will move to 3 meals a day, in between nursing sessions.
