How many times a day did you give your 6 month old solids? I give Kacey it about 2x a day (lunch and…

3x. Breakfast, lunch and dinner

I give it to Richi 3x a day usually. Sometimes 2 times of he isn't particularly hungry. But we do cereal and fruit in the morning, a fruit and veggie mixed at lunch, and then a protein (meat) and veggie for dinner. If he wants more I might give him some bites of fruit. And I always BF before feeding him solids, about 30 minutes before I feed solids

Also. I'm trying to put weight on him so I feed him a lot. Like 4-6 oz of good at a time

@valerie_jean, @mrs.mccormick okay cause I seen in my lactation group that it's bad for them, but breastmilk just wasn't keeping her full anymore and the way I'm doing it has really kept her happy and she is dead on with her wait a growth. I usually do the oatmeal that comes with the baby food. But she also has bites of what im eating now lol but lunch and dinner I do half fruits and half veggie, and just started getting the ones with meats in them

But I do breast feed either before or after

@megbaby07, I only feed Lainey 1x a day. I asked her pedi if I should be feeding her more and he said up until about 9 months they need more formula than babyfood.

@theinkedmommy, that's what I saw in my group. But she still nurses like crazy lol I still feed her before and or after and still nurses the same as she did before. She just doesn't seem full anymore till I started her on 2x a day. Now she is more happy. I have no idea what to do!

@megbaby07, So long as she's getting enough milk, 2x a day is no big deal. I only do Lainey 1x a day because I give her a decent sized dinner. Since I introduced baby food, she has cut back on how much formula she gets. She used to drink 32 oz a day but now I'm lucky to get 28 in her. Her pedi said she needs to be drinking 28-32 oz a day so that's why I haven't given her anymore baby food. Plus she's fat enough. 😂

@theinkedmommy, I wish I could get Kacey eat some more. She has lowered my supply from when she was little. I tried switching to formula and she just looks at me like you know I don't drink that lol I love Lainey girls rolls 😍
