Babies: 0 - 3 Months

How much solids do you give per day?

DS is only eating a couple tbsp's of rice/oatmeal cereal after his last bottle for the day. This is all I have been giving him for the past wk but I think he wants more. I'm not sure what else to introduce or how much to give him. tia

Re: How much solids do you give per day?

  • He gets 5tbsp 2xday - in the morning, about an hour after his 1st feeding, then around 5:30pm.

    We started out with 1tbsp 1xday when he was 4 months and then slowly worked our way up to where he is now. 

    Also, he is on Oatmeal(4tbsp) and Rice & mixed fruit cereal(1tbsp), soon he will be on barley.
