How many meals a day?

How many meals should a 7 month old have in a day? I'm still breastfeeding and today I pumped because I have a KIT day and noticed that I haven't pumped much at all. Baby has been gaining weight though and going up in percentiles.

My 7 month old has 2 meals so far

My girl has 2 proper meals per day - breakfast and dinner. She has some snacks in between (mostly fruit or toast) but still mostly milk.

3 meals a day and 4 bottles

3 meals a day and 4 bottles - I follow blissful baby expert’s (on instagram) 6-10 month routine and this is what she has suggested for this age group

We’ve been having 3 bottles and 3 meals for a while now. 1-2 meals at 7 months is fine though if that suits you and baby.

So my mom was helping me with my son and now she’s leaving tomorrow morning. Do I take my son to daycare right away or just ease into it? Should I take him tomorrow or the day after!

He’s 11 months old btw

What is the weird snack your little one asks for?

My son’s weird snack of choice is seaweed. What’s your kiddos?

Giving water with food

My little one is starting to love having bits of food now but no interest in water, I’ve tried to help him so he knows what to do but he just doesn’t want it. How are you guys teaching them to drink from a non valve cup?

Pre school / nursery

Hello can someone help me please UK based as I’m unsure if it’s different elsewhere.

My child is 2, universal credit have told me when he’s 3 I need to be in 30 hours a week employment but I don’t want him to go into nursery due to not trusting the establishment I’ve seen a lot of bad things so wanted to wait until he’s in pre school but his birthday is February so he won’t start pre school until after 3?
Sorry if this doesn’t make sense and is confusing but my main point is would he have to be in a nursery then before he starts actual school? Which means I’d have to apply now for him to start nursery when he’s 3 and do I get government funded hours?

Solids / purées

Any veg combo recommendations that your baby enjoyed? Atm we are getting a few licks, some spitting out and lots of ‘eww’ faces 😅. Does this count as tasting? Also, really enjoying using the spoon as a teether. How is everyone else doing?
Is everyone using a blender to puree the foods or mashing it with the back of the fork?
I’m steaming everything until extra soft so it’s easier to blend/mash with breastmilk..
