Babies: 6 - 9 Months

When did you add a second solids feeding?

I'm curious. And what's your schedule/ what do you feed when? I figure I'll be adding a second one in a couple of weeks.

  • We started K on solids at 4 months. We added a 2nd feeding for the day about 3 weeks ago (after pedi gave us the OK).
    Warning No formatter is installed for the format bbhtml
  • We started cereal at 4 months.

    Solids at 5 months.

    At 6 months her pediatrician told us to give her solids 3 times a day.

    Her schedule is:

    8:30 6 oz bottle and 2 tablespoons of cereal

    1:30 6 oz. bottle and 2 tablespoons of cereal (or container of baby food)

    6:30 6 oz. bottle and a container of stage 1 baby food

    9:30 6 oz. bottle

  • Started solids at 4 months, at night.

    Started lunches at 5 months.

    Going to be starting breakfasts some time this week, or this weekend. So, 6 months.

    We started solids at 4 months.  We started having two solids per day around 5 months.  He gets cereal with fruit for breakfast, and veggies with a little fruit for dinner.  Right now he doesn't seem ready for solids 3x per day, so we'll be sticking with two for a bit longer.

  • My pedi told me we needed to do it 3 times a day... that seems a bit much to me though

  • I was a little unsure of a menu so I checked different baby foods sites and Gerber's menu has been very helpful.  We've been using it as a guide.

     Good luck!

  • I plan on starting Tegan on two solids a day next week. I'm almost done teaching for the year and so starting next Tuesday (out of town till Monday) we will be doing oatmeal and fruit in the morning and a veggie puree in the evening.

    ETA: We started her 2 tblsp of a veggie puree every night at 5 months.
