That's what my lo has and she'll be 7 months tomorrow 😊 doesn't finish every bottle either

My little boy is 7 months, he still will only take 5-6oz and he’s not doing too great with weaning, he’s the complete opposite to my first, I wouldn’t worry they’ll soon tell you if they’re hungry 😊

@Ezme yeh that’s same he doesn’t finish all the bottles but just feel like because we have been doing this for a good few weeks thought he would be wanting more but can only give him puree because he hasn’t got any teeth yet

We'e been on these bottles for nearly 2 months now if that makes you feel better! Babies gums are quite hard so you'd be able to do some soft finger food or things like porridge if you're comfortable with it 😊 x

My almost 7 month old twins have : 7.30am: 7oz bottle with 2 scoops of baby cerelac 10.30am: 5oz bottle and a brekkie fruit and oats pouch 1.30pm: lunch is 4oz bottle, a food pouch or jar, a fruit pouch (small) and a bit of finger fruit or veggie to chew on and help with textures 4.30pm: same as 1.30pm (but dinner) 7.30pm: 7oz bottle with two scoops of baby cerelac and they sleep with this one. They sleep through the night until 7am next morning. Hope it helps x

They don’t have any teeth yet and they mashed the finger veggies and fruit fine with their gums x

@Carla hey, what is the cerelac for? I’ve not heard of it 😊

It’s like baby cereal, makes the milk more nutritious and weights more on their belly so they feel full and satisfied for longer. That’s how mine started to sleep through the night 😊

You can also use it to prepare like a porridge if you mix it with less milk or water and give it for breakfast on its own or with some fruit

NHS do not recommend adding cereal to babies bottles @Carla but you do you hun x
