Let’s Talk Food
So my 8 month old swore off most purées at about 6.5 months, so I have been feeding him the bland version of what we eat. He has never been small (born 9lb 1oz) but he has chunked out to over 20 lbs. I am afraid I’m feeling him too much.
He still nurses 2 or 3 times at night. More just suckles back to sleep than actually eats.
Example of our day.
Morning nurse
Breakfast - half a cup of baby yogurt or 2oz fruit purée.
Nurse to sleep for nap
Lunch- other half of yogurt and/or another 2 or 4 oz fruit purée. Some puffs or Cheerios. Maybe a teething biscuit or “Cheetos”
Nurse to sleep for nap
Dinner - something like... half an avocado, 1 crush meatball, and some crushed carrots or crushed chicken, mashed potatoes, and crushed broccoli
This seems like SO MUCH MORE food than my 3 year old ever ate.
Thoughts?
