how much food?

[cupcake]

does this sound right?

my baby has half a jar of fruit for breakfast, half a jar of veg for lunch and two teaspoons of cereal mixed with milk for dinner. he also has about two baby biscuit snacks a day. is that enough solid food?
he nurses about 5 times a day.

Caitlyn bfeeds all the time

She eats porridge for breakfast, a cheese sandwich and fruit for lunch and dinner is veg, or something else dinner-like and a desert!

All babies are different x

Hannah eats a lot more than that, but every baby is different

morning oatmeal made up with 2-3 tbsp of formula
snack (some sort of finger food)
lunch 2 cubes veggie puree, 2 cubes fruit puree
snack (again finger food)
dinner 2/3-to 1 jar (or 3-4 cubes), sometimes a finger food thrown in (broccoli, peas etc.) plus dessert (yogurt cup or fruit cup)

Colton ate alot more than that at his age too.. but like the others said, every baby is different and plus Colton was (IS) a pretty big boy!

He was having a Stage 2 jar (4oz) three times a day, and was still having about 6 (sometimes more) bottles of 8oz.

Marlie eats a lot more than that too. Usually about a jar of fruit and a jar of vegetables and meat, or a 2-3 cubes of a vegetable and 2 cubes of fruit. She also has a few finger foods during the day as snacks (like a biscuit).

Does your LO seem hungry? Or is he gaining weight well? Those would be two signs that he's getting enough to eat.

 

[cupcake]

hes been gaining well, he just doesnt seem to want more to eat, maybe its the whooping cough.
