what's your baby eating?

Question

Has your baby started solids? If so what kind? How much formula or bm does your baby take and how often :) just curious about how other May babies are eating

Answer

I started my first at 5 months but she didn't do to well with it. I'll be waiting till at least 6 months and till baby is showing all signs of readiness. 
Your baby will give you clear signs when he's ready to move beyond a liquid diet. Cues to look for include:
Head control. Your baby needs to be able to keep his head in a steady, upright position.
Sitting well when supported. Your baby needs to be able to sit upright in an infant feeding seat or highchair to swallow well.
Losing the "extrusion reflex." Your baby's mouth and tongue develop in sync with his digestive system. To start solids, he should be able to move food to the back of his mouth and swallow it, instead of using his tongue to push food out of his mouth.

Answer

My 15 week old isn't eating solids yet.. she drinks about 34 oz a day and sleeps all night

Answer

I was advised by my health nurse to leave my son off solids for as long as I can before 6 months. The longer the better she said. My son doesn't actually drink that much being honest, so it's no issue to keep him off solids. She said she only advices 4 month olds to be on solids if they're a very hungry baby but the very most my son will drink in a day is 28oz :) so gonna stretch it to as close to six months as I can but I'm dying to see his face when he eats for the first time 😂

Answer

My 4 month old is taking in about 25 oz a day and eats a breakfast of 2 baby spoons of a fruit mixed with rice cereal and formula and she eats a dinner of just straight up rice cereal that's about a tablespoon full with formula but soon will do veggies with her dinner cereal. She sleeps through the night so all calories are by day. 5 bottles and 2 meals. She gets more than 25 oz because I mix her cereal with the formula also so I'd say anywhere between the 25-30 mark a day.

Answer

No solids here. She eats 5 ounces every 2 hours. Averages 30-35 ounces total each day. She sleeps completely through the night (9pm to 7am) so all of her food is consumed during the day.

Answer

My baby hasn't started solids yet. I breastfeed on demand and she still wakes 1-3 times a night to eat. I'm not quite sure how much she eats, but I'm about to go back to work for real (I've been suuuuper part time over the summer) and might get a better idea as I'll be away from her for longer stretches.
