today he ate a bottle at 540 when should i feed him his rice cereal and fruit?

what is your 6 month old baby eating schedule?

Answer 1

Brody eats his food in the same feeding...Right after he finishes his bottle he usually eats his food. That's just what works for him.

Answer 2

I'd wait about an hour, to let his stomach settle down, then after the hour, I'd try a little of each(rice cereal + his fruit), burp him every once in awhile to get all air & gas out of his stomach, so there will be food, in and air out!This should fill him that should be able to sleep longer than he has been! When my daughter was that age her eating habits were screwy, she got hungry at the most strangest times, when she should have been asleep for the night, she up wanting something to drink,hungry, so I can't give any info on her eating schedule, because for the longest time she didn't have one. My daughter is now 33 yrs.old!

Answer 4

My son is 6 months old and I feel him a bottle on waking then about 30-45 minutes later I give him cereal.

He doesnt have any lunch but he now has some dinner.  I give him a bottle at around 4.30-5 and then he has his dinner at 6pm.  I always try to leave around half an hour minimum after a bottle before feeding him.  No one told me to do this its just whats right for my baby :)

He has been eating solids for 4 weeks now and I have only just introuduced his 2nd meal and maybe by the time he is 7 months old he will have the 3 meals a day but Im not sure.  Im just playing it by what he wants (in moderation lol) taking my ques from him :)
