Feeding Schedule 7 Month Old
My baby boy just turned 7 months old last week, he is exactly at 50% of the curves for weight and height.
However, I am still trying to figure out what to feed him, this is what he eats:
- 5 times every 3 hours (around 150 mm breastmilk / formula) plus breastfeeding at night when we wakes up, and at 5 am before I got to work.
He wont take more than 150 mm, and usually only takes 120 mm, and after 30 minutes takes the rest, or takes some formula and I breastfeed him.
- In the morning, he takes cereal mixed with 30 ml of formula/breastmilk.
- In the afternoon, he takes around 1-2 ounzes (30-60) ml of fruit/vegetable puree.
My friend has a 9 month old girl which is slightly smaller than my son but she eats around 5 meals of around 60 mm each, so how come my baby is ok with less?. She only takes milk (formula) 3 times per day but around 240 mm.
Should I start increasing his meals?, maybe an extra meal around lunch time?. Is there anything I can do so he drinks more milk and less frequent?.
Any ideas on what to feed him?. My mother's advice is to give him everything including meat, eggs, soups. She fed me that since I was 1 month old. She thinks the baby should be taking more food, she is surprise the poor baby does not know what an egg taste like.
Thank you
