A bit confused about feeding around 6-8 mths, do you give cereal at each solid feeding?

6-8 mth feeding schedules, can anyone post theirs?

Do you give cereal at each solid feeding?

I am a bit confused!

Thanks

I give cereal in the morning feeding and night, none at the afternoon feeding

DS is 5months and gets Cereal 3x a day. Friuts in the a.m and veggies in the Pm.

Ryan got cereal with breakfast and dinner around that age. He started lunch around 7 months and that was (and still is) a yogurt.

Mine are almost 6 months and eat solids 2x a day. I mix the cereal in with their fruits/veggies, so they eat it every time.

I did, until I brought in other foods, and then I always gave something (sometime cereal and a jar, or just one or the other) before a bottle.

My DD gets cereal with her fruit in the morning and veggie in afternoon. She just started stage 2/stage 3 dinners. So at night she gets 1/2 jar of 'dinner' and 1/2 jar fruit. Do whatever works for your DC. Gianna doesn't really like the cereal much so I give her a break from it at dinnertime. GL!

Frankie has been eating cereal 2x per day since he was five months old. He gets it sometimes now 3x perday. I have him transitioning to more regular food though now.

My son was 7 months on Saturday. He gets

3 tbsp of cereal, 1 jar of fruit and a 4 oz (+ 2 oz in cereal) bottle in the morning around 8AM

then a 6 oz bottle around Noon

then 1/2 a jar of meat, 1 jar of veggies and a 6 oz bottle around 4

then 3 tbps of cereal with a 6 oz bottle (+ 2 oz in bottle) around 8

Rhys is a big boy (20 lbs, 29 inches) so this may seem like a lot but it works for us.

My DS is only having cereal in the AM mixed with fruit. He is 6 months

Jar of fruit for lunch

Jar of Veggie for Dinner

Re: A bit confused about feeding around 6-8 mths, do you give cereal at each solid feeding?

DS is 7 months and he gets solids twice a day, morning and night. At those feedings he gets cereal and 1 jar of stage 1 food, either a fruit or veggie and a bottle. All the other feedings he gets just a 6-7 oz bottle.

We also do two "meals" a day. The first my babysitter gives and she uses 2 TBl cereal mixed with a fruit(or two fruits but they each end up getting a full jar) Then I feed them dinner around 5-5:30 which I do not add cereal to. I usually give them protein mixed with a veg and prune-to keep them going #2
