Mine clears all 3 plates plus finishes 2 snacks and he’s only on 2 bottles now x
@Lauren that’s amazing!! I’m so shocked my girl isn’t a foodie like her parents haha
@Elena wow well done that’s amazing appetite! I was under the impression that they had to be on more milk than that til 1?
Nope, health visitor has no issues with him being on 2 bottles.. she even said by 1 the aim would be that’s he’s dropped to 1 bottle but I don’t mind him staying on 2 till then. I was told to add calcium into his snacks to replace what would be in the bottle so has a yoghurt as his pm snack and always has cheese at some point aswell x
@Elena ah ok yeah, are you seeing health visitor more frequently? As we haven’t seen since 6 weeks and won’t till the 1 year check
I get him weighed every month at the weigh in clinic so you can speak to them there x
Haha yeah we're lucky with her really, I do say that if/when the picky stage hits though, it's gonna hit us hard 🫣😂
Eats most!! X
Not all but usually hw will eat most of it
How much milk is she having in each bottle? What are you offering her? Although milk is their main source of nutrition until 1, they do need food for development and nutrients too and also by 1 they will have dropped some/ most bottles x
@Marissa about 5 ounces 4 times a day but she does also have 1-2 5oz at night and I don’t want to drop a day bottle as last time I tried she drank more at night/ wouldn’t settle without more as was still hungry. My sister is a dietician and said it normal and just to keep persisting as she’s only 8 months and don’t want to be losing much milk as of yet
@Marissa sorry forgot to say what I’m offering her, breakfast anything from toast / cereal and fruits sometimes full fat yogurt with chia seeds. Lunches range, avacado/ chicken/ mash/ lamb /eggs literally whatever we have indoors, dinner just the same meal as us! Tends to be gousto meals haha
My girl always clears her plate/tray. Granted, stuff does end up in her chair or on the floor 😂 but she manages to actually take in at least half, often more 😌 It definitely varies baby to baby! My girl is definitely one of those babies who will eat, or at least try, everything you give her and has always loved her food. But some babies just really aren't arsed until they're a bit older 😅
