Feel like my baby eats too much!

[CaptainMummy]

The girl can put away some amount of food! Over the course of 24hrs, she has 4 bottles, usually drinks 4oz in the morning and afternoon, 7oz at bedtime and 6oz night feed. All of her bottles are 6oz during the day but she isn't interested. Here is an example of a typical day (yesterday)

6am - 4oz milk
7.30am - porridge and banana, 1/2 slice toast

10.30am - yoghurt
12pm - lunch (baked potato with ccheese/beans/coleslaw) and some tomatoes and cucumber
1.30pm - 4oz bottle

3.30pm - 3 grapes (chopped into little bits so it looks like a lot but not really) as a small handful of Ella's kitchen puffs

5.30pm - dinner: chicken in arribata (sp?) sauce, peas and pasta.

7.15pm - 7oz milk

She eats everything... Never anything left but doesn't want milk. If anybody else is eating, she whinges haha so I end up giving her half a breadstick to munch so she doesn't get annoyed!

It seems like an awful lot for a 7 month old! Does it sound okay?
She has followed the 50th centile since birth and is still bang on the line, so she's not gaining excessively... Although she is quite short so a wee bit chubby

Should I just keep going?

I think it sounds perfect, all healthy stuff
Lucas has very similar, hes 9 months but has been eating like that for months. He is on the 98th centile but has been the same weight for 8 weeks now.

I was told he should have 20oz a day. If he has yoghurt,cheese,cereal,potatoes that all counts I was told

Imogen is 6 months, And her routine is similar- she is not interested in her milk either!
6.30am- 6oz milk
7.30am porridge and toast (just gums the toast really eats only a small bit lol) and a tiny bit of water
11am 3-4oz milk
12.30pm veg puree, rice cake and 2 fromage frais
2.30pm 5-6oz milk
4.30pm veg puree sometimes with chicken, fruit puree and a biscuit
6.30pm 7oz milk
It varies day to day too sometimes she wants more milk and sometimes less but will always eat her food haha! X
