7 month old feeding questions
How much are you feeding your 7 month old? How much variation in the types of fruits and vegetables do you give your LO day to day and week to week?

Oatmeal with fruit for breakfast.
One jar fruit and one jar veggie for lunch
One jar chicken with fruit and one jar veggie for dinner.
I use earths best jars and since he is my 2nd I am really laid back and give him all of the crazy combinations! Turkey with cranberry, pumpkin, achi berry mix, blueberries, apricots. I do give him the basics most of the time (apple, pears, banana, squash, carrot, peas, string beans, sweet potato).
He only recently stated eating well. Two weeks ago there was many days he only had 1-2 jars total.

7 month old feeding questions
At 7 months, we started a second meal. DD usually got oatmeal and fruit at breakfast and veggies for dinner. I often mixed foods together so she had a lot of variety. Breakfast might be oatmeal, prunes, and bananas and dinner might be squash and green beans and I changed it up each day if I could.
I never measured in the morning, just eyeballed her oatmeal and fruit. At dinner, she'd usually eat 3 cubes of food from the freezer or a 4oz jar of food.

Re: 7 month old feeding questions
breakfast- 4 tablespoons of oatmeal and 2 cubes of fruit lunch - 2 cubes (of each) veggie and fruit dinner - i just started doing a combo of things. so its 3 cubes of brown rice, chicken and carrots and 3-4 tablespoons of fruit
oops
she's had sweet potato, carrots, green beans(she hates) avocado, pears, bananas, brown rice, and chicken
she still has the same amount of BM each day at daycare. for me it's important that BM is her main source of nutrition. if she starts drinking less I will have them cut back on the solids
