    This.  We haven't added the third meal yet, but I'm planning on doing it in the next week or two.

    We added in a second meal somewhere around 7 1/2 months.  We did it because DD was eating so little at breakfast and dinner that I wanted to give her a third chance to eat something.  Turns out that she's just a light eater, but now she eats lightly three times a day.  At first, I'd just sit her down and give her something light, like some cheerios or a piece of cheese or a little bit of applesauce.   If I missed a day, I didn't stress.  It  gradually became more of a real and regular meal.

    3rd meal around 7 months.  But the past 3 weeks or so she's been not interested in the third meal.  This weekend, I tried feeding her solids before her bottle and she's now eating food like a champ again.
