How much does your 7 month old eat?

I give my son 1 jar of baby food mixed with oatmeal for breakfast, yogurt for lunch, and then for dinner its a mix. Either yogurt, or what he gets for breakfast, or meat and fruit (hes doesnt eat much of the meat though, maybe 1/4 jar---and I even give him that before I will give him the fruit, he just doesnt like it)

I feel like he isnt eating enough. We started eggs too, so soon I am going to start with pancakes and such....but just wanted to know what everyone else was eating. Thanks!

6m 1w here. We do 3 stage2 jars a day - with cereal - breakfast, lunch and dinner.

at dinnertime - a good half cup of puffs too.

My ds is almost 8 months...he eats 4 tbsp of cereal for breakfast, A stage 2 jar of fruit for lunch and 1/2 a stage 2 jar of veggie/meat for dinner. Each meal is with a 5 ounce bottle. I feel like he eats nothing!

Re: How much does your 7 month old eat?

1 jar fruit mixed with cereal for breakfast. Jar of meat/veggie combo for lunch (or yogurt). Jar of veggies for dinner. So, between 3 and 3.5 jars/day plus cereal. Also, 3-4 6-8oz bottles/day.
