Babies: 3 - 6 Months

How many x/day does your 6mo have solids?

We just started this week and are now doing cereal and fruit. At our pedi visit today she said we can do it 2 (breakfast and dinner) or 3 (add lunch) times per day.  Just wondering what everyone else does. Do you give the same amount at each meal?

Re: How many x/day does your 6mo have solids?

  • We feed LO cereal 2x a day, breakfast and dinner, same amount.  I will probably start 3x a day in the next few weeks.  We give DS fruit for breakfast and veggies for dinner.  He loves it!!

  • Started with lunch, then went to lunch and dinner, and now we feed him solids at breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
  • We are still at 1x per day.  She eats 1-2 oz of a fruit or veggie at a time - and sometimes that's a struggle, so we're not really rushing.  We'll probably increase to 2x per day in the next couple weeks if she seems ready.

  • Once. Will likely not go to 2x for a few weeks or until DS seems hungry for it. We do it between nursing sessions in the morning... He eats an ice cube's worth of pear or sweet potato mixed with oatmeal and a few bites of prunes.

    I don't want to rush it - it starts the weaning process and I plan to nurse for about 18 months. Hopefully... But it depends on my sanity and DS's needs.
