I am really unsure how much he should be having now, he has been on solids since 3 mths & is 7 mths now so is very used to food. He has also started to refuse his milk even more, so I have cut out a bottle, so gone from 4 to 3. His meals go like this:
Approx 7am - bottle
10am - 1 weetabix mixed with cows milk
1pm - bottle & half a jar of stage 2
4pm - half a jar of stage 2 & a full fromage frais (little stars)
7pm - bottle & 1/2 a weetabix
He never refuses food unless (and this is very rare!) he doesn't like it, so unsure whether I should be giving more than 1/2 a jar. I used to give a whole jar of stage 1 food, but these jars are bigger & most are pasta based so would have thought more filling. He seems ok & sleeps through most nights, so am just wondering A) If he is having enough & B) When will he need more? Any thoughts?
Thanks:)
 
Just want to say, Every baby will be different and eat different amounts.
However, Colton was eating a full stage 2 jar at Jack's age.
Colton started stage 2's at 4.5-5 months.. because I started introducing them slowly. He started with half (because half is the same amount in a stage 1 jar), then at 6 months I swapped him to just stage 2 (which are 6mo+ here) and he has been eating a whole one since.
He has three whole Stage 2's a day. Sometimes he will eat a bit less, especially in the morning. But pretty much normally eats it all, and alot of the time hollars for more.
I know he's a tad older than Jack, but now he eats a stage 2 jar (usually a veg), and then some of what we are having as well (which he usually doesnt eat alot of, hence the other jar)
