Maybe try meal prepping for him. Like fruit or vegetables so it’s easier. Also just have him share his lunch which is easy.
Almost exact same situation here. I tell myself solids mainly just at dinner is ok because the doctor says until 1 year all nutrition needs should still come from breast milk and formula and solids is more “practice” and skill development. But who knows 🤷♀️🤷♀️🤷♀️
I have the food ready for him to do it and it’s mostly puree but I’ll suggest the feed him what he’s eating. That’s a good idea. Thanks for the assurance that one meal a day is good
Also if he find the puree takes to long maybe think of using a silicone pouch ?
I’ve always been scared of the pouches (idk why lol) but that’s a good idea. I’ll test it out today
You can use a reusable one vs the store bought ones
My 9 month old doesn't eat solids at all
He has his 9months appt in a few weeks! I’m gonna ask for ideas too! Thanks everyone
Our pediatrician said that by 9 months she wants to see our girl eating 3 solid meals
Feeding a baby does take a lot of time. Especially spoon feeding. My baby tends to get fussy and takes a lot of time to eat. If he’s busy and finds solids time consuming, he can do 2 spoons of food and mix it with butter or a healthy fat like olive oil. This way you don’t have to take a long time spoon feeding and the calorie needs are met. Examples: 2 spoons of zucchini purée and olive oil would be around 100 calories at least.
My baby is 8 months almost 9 months. She eats breakfast and dinner.
@Nathalie that’s very interesting and makes sense! Will try that! Thank you
My almost 9 month old eats 3 solid meals a day. Your husband can find 5-10 minutes a day to feed him solids. It can even be a puree!
