DD is 8months old, we started weaning at 5.5months. We have been doing traditional weaning + finger foods. In the last couple of weeks she seems to have 'gotten it' she now
eats really well, opening her mouth for the spoon or putting food in her own mouth.
She has 3 meals a day, small bowl of porridge and sometimes 1/2 a slice of toast for breakfast. 1/2 a 7month + jar/pouch (about 80g) or homemade mashed food, + 4-5 strawberries cut up or 1/2 a nectarine for lunch. Same amount of purée/mashed food for dinner + natural yoghurt (60g ish) . She has 4 bottles of formula a day too.
When she's having her solids I think she would eat more, she keeps opening her mouth, I'm deciding her portion sizes. Should I feed her solids until she turns her head, shows signs she's finished, or carry on as I am? She goes 4hrs between bottles and has no feeds at night? Thank you for any advice you have.
