Child in daycare? How often do *you* feed solids?

Although my DD is barely eating solids, we are offering them twice a day (sometimes).  She can barely finish a stage 1 sized jar (2.5oz?  I make most of her food, so I am not sure of the amount).  In any case, during the week I never get to feed her.  I nurse her in the morning before work, so she isn't hungry yet for solids.  If we are giving her solids for breakfast that day, they are offered an hour later by either DC or my mother (whomever she is with that day).  Again, if she is getting a solid lunch that day, the cycle continues (except with a bottle since I am at work).  We haven't even attempted dinner yet.  If you are working, are you even able to offer a solid breakfast to your baby?  It seems so weird to me that I barely seem to feed her (other than BFing when home).  I tried to give her breakfast in the mornings, but it was rushed and she just wasn't hungry.

    The days that DD is at daycare (M-Thurs) I do not feed any solids for breakfast.  I offer her a bottle in the am before we leave.  She usually goes back to sleep at daycare for a while in the am and then when she wakes up, she gets solids...also she gets solids for lunch...and offered bottles during the day.

    We also feed her solids for dinner and then a bottle before bed.

    I never get to feed her breakfast. I have to wake her up to get to day care. However, we are only solids twice a day and do one morning and one night so I always do the night one.

    I feed her at night when we get home. On the weekends though I feed her twice sometimes 3 times a day for solids.

    At daycare they feed her solids once, usually mid-morning after her nap.

    This is what we do as well.  I nurse him before we leave the house...nurse him after dinner, before bed.  He gets a bottle with his meals at daycare.

    We have barely started solids ourselves, but he really doesn't seem into at dinner...we have much better luck on Sat AMs. So, I'm thinking at first it will only be twice a week at home. Sad
    Um, yeah. The Bump be too crazy for pics of my kid.
