We honestly aren’t doing a ton of solids, we aren’t even doing them daily. We are doing them when 1) baby seems extra hungry or showing interest in what we are eating
2) we plan a weekend to stay home all weekend and introduce an allergen

Unsure of how much milk as we EBF

We give baby oatmeal in the morning and then a veggie puree later in the day alongside five bottles (6-7 oz). He sometimes will snack on a cucumber or berries in between too!! But we also go a couple of days where it’s either one meal or just milk if he’s not feeling up to it.

Iv started my BB on solids when he was almost 5 months old. We do three a day, breakfast/dinner/snack. Mainly oatmeal for breakfast ATM, then dinner is what we usually eat or il make a batch of dinner for him. And snack could be some fruit, avocado, hummus, something light and small. I'm also doing a mix of baby led weaning and purees so that he can get used to the different textures. I'm still learning what he can eat now and trying to get him to try a variety of foods. I BF roughly 4/5 times during the day and nights can be about 2 times.

About 3oz of solids twice a day, about 32ish ounces of milk spaced between 8 feeds of 4oz

2 solids a day with a drink (straw or sippy cup) (she wakes up around 10am) lunch and dinner
2-3 milks a day night and morning depending on her sleep (bottle).
Snacks in between or late (fruits with pacifier feeder or teethers snack)
And water when she's thirsty (straw or sippy cup)

We do 2 solids a day about 3oz each and sometimes a snack I've made for him. As well as 5 or 6 7oz bottles a day (8oz bottles for first and last bottles)

I do one puree a day at lunch 4oz. Then top off with 4 oz. Bottle my pediatrician said to not introduce true solids until 7-8 months when they start to cut their first teeth and also when they show that they have learned the basics of chewing/eating so we do puree once a day and dissolvable puffs for snack to help get that hand to mouth for him to learn to feed himself for when we do intrude true solids

@Khawla Same! Baby oatmeal (with some peanut powder added) around brunch time, veggie purees for dinner, and five 6 oz bottles. We used to skip occasionally- but our LO was getting bad constipation so the pediatrician recommend we keep up with the high fiber solids.

1 puree a day, a snack fruit or teething, 28-30 oz of milk.

I noticed if I do 2 purees she will drink less milk. I dont want that because the milk intake should still be at 24 oz minimum.

Im also doing a little bit of BLW on the weekends but so far only guac and eggs bc im terrified of chocking lol
