Portion Thoughts?

Question

For lunch: 
1 Scrambled Egg
4oz Fruit Puree
1/2 of a small croissant
Too much? Too little? Just right?

Answer

Sounds like a hungry babe. As long as they're having their normal serving/portion of breastmilk or formula before that and then eating that food, it's fine!

Answer

Sounds right to me. My babe hAd 1/4 of a blueberry muffin, 1 egg and some fruit this am for breakfast. She would have kept eating too if I didn’t stop her hah . She loveeeesss food

Answer

That sounds about what I feed my daughter. For example, I'll give her a 1 egg omlete with spinach, a couple of slices of a fruit, and a couple slices of a veggie for breakfast. I usually have stuff stored in the freezer to just reheat for her. We do baby led weaning, so for lunch I'll give her either a tiny quesadilla or some pb toast, with half an avocado and a strawberry. She crams it all in and when shes full she throws it at the dog, so it's easy to tell haha.

Answer

Sounds fine. One whole egg is a lot in its self! I just feed my baby my food until he’s not hungry anymore. I don’t weigh or notice how much or how little. 
Babies and kids are awesome at understanding fullness.... people push the idea of “finishing your food” and it teaches us to ignore basic fullness and hunger cues. Just go on if they are hungry or full and you will do awesome!

Answer

Sounds like a lot to me, but my guy isn't a big eater. Every baby is different!

Answer

I just offer until he stops eating but his main nutrition is formula so I just make sure he had a bottle at least 1 or 2 hours before feeding solids. If he is due for bottle at our dinner time I usually give bottle first. For lunch my son had 2 pieces of cheese and 2 pieces of turkey today.. last night he had about 1/4 of my salmon and 1/4 of my spinach souffle with a couple crackers. Just an example from us!

Answer

Similar to us. We would do a scrambled egg, a handful of berries, and some crackers for an example 🍳

Answer

If your LO is keeping up with their milk or formula then I say it’s ok.  For lunch my LO has 3 ounces of purées.  One ounce of protein and 2 ounces of veggies or fruit.
