when should i increase the amount i feed him?

[redberry3]

right now i give him 3 tbsps of cereal in the morning with a 6 oz bottle, then for lunch I give him 1.5 tbsp of cottage cheese with a tbsp of apple/pear mixture, then for supper i give him 1.5 tbsp of oats and 2 tsbp of meat/veg mix.

When should I increase it? I never feed him until he refuses the food I just feed him what I think is enough.

He gets bottles still, obviously, throughout the day but when should I increae these amounts?

I wonder the same thing too, sorry I don't have any advice. Dylan never really refuses food unless he doesn't like it. Hopefully some more experienced mums can help x

I would say just go with what the baby wants. Give him as much as he wants and watch for the signs of when he's had enough (closing mouth, turning head etc.). He will tell you how much he needs
