mommy guilt... I have terrible eating habits and I'm just now realizing how it's affecting my son's diet... No one informed me that a 9 to 10 month old should be eating 3 solid food meals a day... Really is a dilemma being and isolated parent *sighs* I try to read as much as I can but with a very active baby that's difficult and I don't have any friends let alone any friends that are parents so I don't have anyone giving me wanted or even unwanted advice... My own mother passed away a few years back so I can't turn to her for advice and my mother-in-law thinks that I need to be medicated because my husband works too much and I complain about that... I wouldn't complain about it if he would actually put forth some effort with the baby. The last time I needed to go to the emergency room he tried to drop me off at the ER and go to work... The last time he had to go to the emergency room I forced him because he was going to try and go to work luckily he listened to me because his appendix was about to explode... if that calls for medication then whatever

What are you feeding him and how often? I learn most of what I know from apps like this and other websites not from friends or family.

@modom16 well hes always been a fan of a bottle every 2 hrs because his little belly couldn't do alot at once, but I've finally got him to eat more quantity less frequently. We've been doing the oatmeal and pureed foods once or twice a day, but just started aiming for pureed foods 2-3 times a day with some finger foods like the baby puffs teething wafers and some veggies. He just tried whole pieces of avacado two days ago and loved it! We tried some cheese and bread yesterday, he liked the cheese but had a hard time with the bread.
I'm terrible at eatting 3x a day myself.. Idk how to break the cycle and start a good new schedule

Just cuz you don't eat 3 times a day doesn't mean your child can't. I don't eat 3 times a day but my child does.

@kaitlinl20 I understand that, I just wasn't aware that at his age he should be. We've both been better about it this week :)
