How often do they eat?
What are they eating?
Any food related milestones lately?
My LO is 7 weeks tomorrow.
She eats 6-8x a day.
Both breastmilk and formula throughout the day.
Graduated up to 4-5 oz at each feeding thanks to the 6 week growth spurt.

How often do they eat? It feels like all day long between nursing, solid meals and snacks!
What are they eating? Nurses 3x/day, solid food and bedtime bottle of pumped milk (1-4 oz)
Any food related milestones lately? He self-feeds and can pick up food of any size. He is a little chipmunk and stores a TON of food in his cheeks. I try to stop him or slow him down but he will just whine for more food and continue to shove it in his mouth! I introduced a straw cup 3 days ago and he took to it immediately and drinks 7-8oz of water from it daily!

Breastfeeding every meal unless daddy gets jealous and wants to feed her. Only then does she get a bottle.

He is 7.5 months old.
He is EBF--on demand. He may eat (nurse) 4-10 times a day and 2-8 times a night.
He refuses solids but we try daily. Usually he'll eat a couple bites of something off my plate. He gets a taste of my meals, so 3x a day but usually only accepts 1x/day or none at all.
He has excellent pincher grasp for eating small things and has for a few months now (I guess that's not really a new milestone).

How old is your LO?
5 months on saturday
How often do they eat?
i bf at home at 7 or waiting for daycare to open at 730, he takes a bottle there at 1030 and around 1-2, and then i bf him again at 5 and again at 7-730. he usually sleeps through the night but lately has been waking around 4-5 for a quick 10 minute snack feed.
What are they eating?
bf'ing he goes anywhere from 10-20 minutes, and i usually pump 4 oz for daycare bottles, each.
Any food related milestones lately? started cereal but not a big fan (first rice, then oat), it makes his skin/face sort of red and patchy so i think we'll give it a break for a little bit.

She eats every 2 hrs during the day and goes 12 hrs overnight without a feed.
LO is still EBF with the exception of one serving of solids per day (we just started solids a few weeks ago); mainly veggies with a.bit of fruit mixed in.
Milestones - nothing major other than she loves every food we give her and is pretty good about grabbing the spoon and accurately directing it to her mouth.

Any food related milestones lately? I've been able to add back soy & egg yolk w/ occasional egg white & very limited occasional dairy into my diet!!!

LO is almost 11 months old.
Nurses 5-6 times per day. Sleeps approx. 12 hour stretch w/one wake-up to nurse.
She has 3 solid meals a day, about 1/2 cup of food each meal. We do a mix of purees and table food. I let her taste pretty much anything except honey & nut products.
This might be a food-related milestone... she loves to feed everyone around her now (us, dogs, etc). She'll offer us a bite and looks so thrilled when we pretend to take a bite.
