It's all a blur! She eats 3 meals a day now though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/solids-how-many-times-a-day#post-207762 Sun, 01 Jul 2012 05:56:24 +0000 Rubies 207762@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Same as @Artbee. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/solids-how-many-times-a-day#post-207690 Sat, 30 Jun 2012 21:25:28 +0000 MamaG 207690@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Once per day until we had worked through the basic purees. I didn't want daycare to feed her anything we had not already tried at home. Once we were through all the purees, she went right to three meals per day. The quantity at each meal has increased over time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/solids-how-many-times-a-day#post-207680 Sat, 30 Jun 2012 21:09:18 +0000 Mrs. Superhero 207680@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>we fed her at every meal that she was awake for. So usually twice a day as she slept through lunch until she dropped her third nap.. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/solids-how-many-times-a-day#post-207601 Sat, 30 Jun 2012 18:37:54 +0000 littleveesmommy 207601@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This is a great topic! LO is turning five months and I'm thinking of starting her in a few weeks. The once a day plus one every month rule seems simple enough to remember! I just went out to buy some supplies to make LO's food (freezer tray w lid, little storage containers, spoons) and I am SO excited!! I got an immersion stick blender last Xmas and will be using that to purée her foods. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/solids-how-many-times-a-day#post-207566 Sat, 30 Jun 2012 17:30:44 +0000 sandy 207566@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We did 1x at 6 months and are doing 2x at 7 months...she will be 8 months in a few weeks and I feel like she is close to be ready for 3 meals. She will finish 6-8 tbsp of purées if she likes the food (favorites include avocados, apples, pears, green beans, sweet potato and banana) and she is nursing a bit longer at each session </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/solids-how-many-times-a-day#post-207382 Sat, 30 Jun 2012 12:40:33 +0000 erwoo 207382@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think I did what artbee did too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/solids-how-many-times-a-day#post-207332 Sat, 30 Jun 2012 10:42:53 +0000 cvbee 207332@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thanks for asking this. I'm trying to learn about solids now (while we're still a few months away). The 2 answers so far are nice and simple to follow. I like simple. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/solids-how-many-times-a-day#post-207295 Sat, 30 Jun 2012 09:52:30 +0000 owlmom 207295@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ditto @artbee </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/solids-how-many-times-a-day#post-207287 Sat, 30 Jun 2012 09:39:24 +0000 heffalump 207287@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We did once a day. Twice a day at 7 months, and 3 times at 8 months. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/solids-how-many-times-a-day#post-207256 Sat, 30 Jun 2012 08:53:36 +0000 autumnlove 207256@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>How many times a day did you feed your 6 month old solids? </p>
