When did you move to three meals? LO is around 8.5 months old and still mostly on just purees for breakfast and dinner everyday. For lunch she'll sometimes eat some of what I'm eating or I'll have her try new table foods but she doesn't eat a lot for lunch and sometimes she doesn't have anything.
I know a few people I know said they were on three meals a day at 6 months or so. So when did you start giving LO breakfast, lunch, and dinner?

10 months - don't rush it if you don't have to - 3 meals is so messy and such a project...

DD is 7 months and she will mostly have 2 meals, breakfast and lunch (is she has dinner she usually wakes up for an extra feed during the night). Sometimes she will have a little bit of what I'm eating at dinner but not usually
DS at that age was on 3 solid meals a day, he needed the food! Each baby is different, just follow their cues- if you think they're getting enough they probably are.

We started right away at 6 months with cereal for breakfast, veggie for lunch and veggie for dinner. Added fruit to lunch and dinner about a month later.

Right before one year. DD was on two meals plus a couple of snacks for ages, but I never really added in breakfast... I would just give her a morning bottle instead. This week DD turned one, so I finally added in breakfast. She now gets a sippy cup of milk and some Joe's O's and bananas while I get ready for work in the morning. On weekends we do eggs, toast, and fruit.

About 10 months? Even then I was not super religious about it.

We started offering 3x/day really early on, but she didn't eat more than 2-3 oz total until about 9 months.
