Just when I get comfortable with milk intake.... now we've introduced solids and I have NO CLUE how much he should be eating. He's on formula now, which we've cut back on just a teeny bit because of eating 3x a day.
Because my DS has zero self-regulation, I swear he'd just eat and eat til he threw up. He'll eat 1/2 an acorn squash in one sitting, and he's only 6.5 months old.
The cereal containers (rice/oatmeal, etc) say give a few tbsp.
So for bkfst, I give 4 tbsp cereal with water. Plus a few tbsp of organic apple sauce. And normally part of a banana or some other mashed veggie.
And that's breakfast.
We do this 3 x a day, about the same amount, some cereal, some veggie and maybe part of what I'm eating if he looks interested.
This seems like a lot!!! But, he takes it, LOVES it, and like I said, always wants more, is upset when I take the bowl away.
And he doesn't seem to be gaining weight.
How much do your LO's eat?
