More than one meal with baby food

Hello all !  When do you start adding an extra baby food meal ?  Right now we do baby food in between the 4pm and 7 pm bottle ( essentially while we eat dinner, with him at the table )  -- when do we start adding more ?

    How much is your LO eating at the one feeding?  Our GI recommend doing 1 ounce, once a day for 2-3 weeks.  When she is consistently eating that, then do 1 ounce twice a day and then move up to two ounces at one of the feedings.

    We just upped his dinner meal to 2 oz tonight. DS just hasn't seemed satisfied the last couple nights.

    I just started adding in a morning meal. LO has been cleaning his 1 oz meal at night and so far is doing so in the morning as well.

    I started with 1 oz around lunch time to be able to check for food allergies when he's awake.  I did that for about 3 weeks then added a second solid feed around dinner time with foods he'd already had (cereal and fruit).  He now takes about 1 oz at lunch and just over 2 oz at dinner.  I also nurse before offering the solids.  I think he takes more solid in the late afternoon because my supply drops a little at that time of day.
