How quickly did you increase the serving size of cereal and veggies/fruit?

I gave it some time before increasing. If DS was still looking for cereal, then I increased the amount. At first it was 1 Tbsp. Then I think by the end of that first month I had moved to 2 Tbsp and it stayed there for a while.
As for fruit/veggies, I did Stage 1 for a while, and then moved to Stage 2 when Dr. gave me the ok to give solids at every meal.

I think as long as you offer bm or formula first then you can give as much solids as your LO wants.

Dr. said start with a teaspoon and I didn't know if I should be increasing every day/every week, etc. I was afraid of feeding him too much but I guess he won't eat if he's not hungry.

Just follow his lead. If he's finishing the teaspoon, offer him a TB. Once he starts finishing that, offer 2. I was told to build up to 2 2TB servings, am&pm. HTH!
