Children: Nichole
Default Re: 6.5mos old feeding schedule ideas

When I introduced solids to my dd's schedule I just put it in front of her nursing. So like if I wanted to add breakfast, I would feed her some mashed food, then offer her the breast to nurse. Then continue the like.
I also don't like the idea of making a child eat more solids if they are not ready (not that your son is not)
But some docs will keep saying to increase solids, when in reality children only need breastmilk or formula till they are one. Solids befor eis just to get them used to eating and textures and such.
So if your son is not crying for more food yet, then he doens't need more. Just my opinion.

Nichole started solids at 5 1/2 months old. She had one meal a day till she was about 7 months old, then we added one more meal (then nurse after), she had 2 till she was about 10 months old, then we added the 3rd. By 12 months she was eating all 3 main meals and two snacks a day
