How much should my 4 month old be eating?

I've started my baby on solids, i know lots will think its too early but trust me, she is so ready! pre weaning she was having over 11 bottles of hungry milk a day!

she now has about 5 bottles a day, along with two solid meals, but how much should she be having do you think?

she sometimes has porridge in the morning, and then a rusk in formula in the evening. she has also had some baby food out of jars, that she seems to love, she has about half a jar per meal, is that right???

worried that i am not feeding her enough lol!
