Feeding:spacing out meals
2008-12-03
Name: megha m



hello,
i have a 7 month very active baby boy. he weighed 7.45 kgs at his 6 month check up. i had a proper routine until a week back but now it seems the routine is falling apart leaving him too hungry or not interested in food. here is what his routine was like earlier
7.30 am 4 oz milk
8.30 am little cereal with fruits for b' fast
betn 9 and 10, nap for arnd 45 min
11 am lunch - rice/lentils/khcihdi with veges
12.30 4 oz milk
1 to 2.30 nap
BM on wake up
4 pm 4 oz milk
arnd 5 pm BM
betn 5 and 6 pm nap for arnd 30 minutes
6 pm dinner rice/lentils/khichdi with veg
8 pm BM + 4oz milk
9 pm bed
feeds BM 2-3 times at night

but since a week or so, he has stopped taking BM during the day time. he seems not keen on b' fast. and then is very hungry and distressed by lunch time. i get confused whether to give him more milk in betn. sometimes i do but then his meal intake reduces.
Can other mothers share their experiences? and help me where i am going wrong. he does not like fruits at the moment. he eats good lunch and dinner when hungry. have introduced almost all vegetables to him.

this one is my second boy. but i need to refresh some more points re weaning
1. when to introduce cheese
2. mild masalas like turmeric and hing.
3. yoghurt

thanks.

i guess u can start with cheese for him a bit n een u can give him normal fud.
my baby boy is 9mnth old n he eats fud same wht v eat, with masala n all. i just mash n give him only thats the diff. He even luvs yoghurt he eats it every day with every meal so i guess u can start it slowly
bye tc
