my baby iz 8 months old...a healthy baby..eats ok...birthweight 3.250...current weight-8 kg's.
here i have seen in thiz board many mom's say that thier babies r fussy eaters but the number of times they feed n the amount iz more than what my baby eats...am i feeding her less??or am i comparing too much..

three main meals including veggies (6 oz each)
formula - 3 oz a day(ragi,rice,cerelac,
fruit juice - 4 oz a day(apple,avacado,banana,orange)

Hetal replied. at first, each baby apetite is different compared to the standard set by any org or ne resources..you have to understand that the diet charts or the recomnded diet per serving in oz or cups or tsp/tblsp is for proper guidance that if the baby is of this age, he needs this much and its based on research where in most babies showed acceptance and good growth,development of all around,,if that diet was followed,,so its required by us to see that if at all our baby is able to eat somewhere in that range or most of the days,,if not everyday !
you cant expect your baby to complete the feed, at the same time you cant expect your baby to stop the acceptance,,many baby are able to take more than recmnded because of diet intake capacity,,apetite,,type of the food offered and yes finally, timings wherein they are offered,,and not to mention,,growth spurts which babies have 3-4,6th,8-9,and then at 1 year..

if your baby is able to eat as above,,he is expected to grow healthy, good at wght and considering that he gets all his nutrition,he is expected to reach his milestones on time !
hope this explains !
