Hey girls. Sorry to be a pain but it is really playing on my mind. Layla was never really one to "tell me when she'd had enough food" with her solids until now... but now, combined with her teething (on and off but when on, omg do you know about it!) she is kinda point black refusing food other than fruit pot/jars, fresh fruit pieces, rusks/biscuits and fromage frais pots. I kinda worried that she is not getting enough at the moment.
Been to see HV today about it and she doesn't seem bothered as she is within her 2 centile wotsit graph thing that I can never understand. She gained 4oz in 2 weeks??? I don't know if that is normal but its certainly not like the 8oz+ she had been gaining lately...
HV reckons she had had a growth spurt and is now "calming" down from that but it is unlike Layla to just point blank refuse.
Anyway, that explains the scenario lol but the main question here, is what do or did your 7 month olds eat and at what quantities???
Layla I would say quantity wise (when she does eat) is a full stage 1 jar (125g) of savoury food followed by a fruit pot/puree/fromage frais - 60g for lunch and again for dinner. Breakfast she has porridge or weetabix mixed with 2 or 3oz milk.
Is that too much? Is it too little? I started weaning her at 4 months. I'm concerned as the sizes of the stage 2 jars (200g) seem rather alot to me? Surely that is too much to give her?
Sorry for such a long post about this again but I'm so very confused. Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you xx
