Re: Baby Food Question

This is sad (DD is only 11 months & we started solids at 6) but I THINK we initially gave cereal & then gave the fruit as well (same meal)...

Re: Baby Food Question

We give 2-3 tablespoons of cereal and a half container of fruit (we're not on veggies yet).

Re: Baby Food Question

We do that twice a day...so she gets about 5 tablespoons of cereal and a container of fruit each day.

Re: Baby Food Question

DS was on cereal 2x per day when we added fruits/veggies.

Here is our schedule
Feeding #1 - formula only
Feeding #2 - Cereal & Bottle
Feeding #3 - Fruit & Bottle
Feeding #4 - Bottle only
Feeding #5 - cereal, fruit, bottle and bedtime!

Dr told us he could have UP TO 1/2 cup cereal a day and up to 2 containers of baby food a day.

We do just about 3+ tbsp of cereal each time and 1/2 or more a container of fruit/veggies

Re: Baby Food Question

I asked my girlfriend the same question yesterday because we'll be starting fruit next week. She told me that you add, you don't take away, meaning you add the fruit with the cereal. You can serve it separate from the cereal but during the same feeding.
