How many times a day do you feed solids to your baby?

Question

My baby did NOT want to eat solids until recently at 7 months old. He's kind of tolerating it now? He'll take maybe 1 oz. How much is normal every sitting?
I was thinking of feeding him solids twice a day: morning and night. Is that a good plan? What should I do?

Answer

Since six months, we’ve been trying to give my daughter solids twice a day also. 4oz each time. Some days she would get it just once. Other days twice. We knew it wasn’t as important for her to get the solids as it was for her bottles. So of course she had all of her bottles and then solids whenever. Really no schedule when it came to solids.

Answer

My baby turned 8 months old yesterday and I feed her a stage 2 baby food at 9am, 130pm, and 630pm.

Answer

I tried for twice a day around 7-8 months. Always do bottle first then food. It’s just for fun until one so an ounce or a couple is good enough. I made my own baby food once he ate all that we moved on to soft table foods.

Answer

At 7 months we were doing once a day and she at 1-2oz of baby food because that’s all she really wanted. She would occasionally eat up to 4oz. We just started doing 3 meals a day at 9 months but stopped baby food because she wasn’t interested in it at all anymore. She eats off my plate now and is enjoying food a lot more.

Answer

8 month old eats solids with each bottle - so four times per day. Each bottle is 7 oz and he eats that first. He eats some table food but we also give him the lil bits meals from Gerber, especially when he’s at daycare. For those, he usually has half a tub (2.5ish oz).
