6 & 7 month olds!
My DS is 6.5 months. This is what he is currently eating:
730am - 1 tablespoon oatmeal, 1 stage 1 jar of fruit, 7 oz bottle
1130- 1 stage 1 jar of vegetables, 7 oz bottle
330- 1 tablespoon oatmeal, 1 stage 1 jar of fruit, 7 oz bottle
730pm - 6-7 oz bottle
I'd like to start with stage 2 jars as soon as I run out of stage 1... and im also going to add yogurt.
Right now he is rolling around but only front to back...
He loves to play with his toys, especially the musical ones, and is really starting to bounce around in his bouncer (instead of just play with the toys)
He is sitting up on his own on the sofa...and when i put him on the floor to sit he supports his weight on his arms
He sleeps 12 hours at night, but fights naps suddenly. Im lucky if i get one 1hr and one 30 min nap from him.
:)

Re: 6 & 7 month olds!
DS will be 6 months next week. We just started solids this week so we are not really in a good pattern. He's eating 4-5 bottles a day, each 6-8 oz. I'm just trying to figure out where to fit the food in so that he'll still get enough formula...
He's still waking up most nights between 3 and 5am to eat  Every now and again he'll sleep straight through from 10pm to 7am. Not sure why he can't do it every night!
He's rolling all over the place both directions. He can only sit up alone for about 2 seconds and then topples over. He just started getting up on his hands and knees and rocking, so I think we are in for trouble soon!

Re: 6 & 7 month olds!
DS is 6.5 months
He is eating 3 meals a day.
Cereal and fruit for breakfast
Vegetalbe and fruit for lunch
CHicken and veg combo for dinner and fruit.
Bottles are much less during the day but he is waking at night - No consistency except really likes a 530 or 6 am bottle.
Napping is hit or miss and I think that is effecting his night sleep.
HE loves his exersaucer.
He doesn't rollover just on his side and not sitting up yet. Hopefully soon.

Your DS is a good eater. I am trying to figure out a good schedule for breakfast, lunch, dinner with bottles thrown in.
Do you do your bottles scattered at at meal time?
