My daughter is 7 months. She won't reject food but nor will she ask for more so I really have to be the one to allot her portions. I think I am overfeeding on the food front as she is on the sligtly heavier size - I wasn't too concerned before when she was in the 75th percentile for height and weight but now she is in the 90th percentile for weight but only 75th perentile for height. PLease advise:
21 oz formula per day
Breakfast: 80z milk then 2.5 Tbps porridge + 2 Tbps puréed fruit + 1/2 tsp puréed prune
Lunch: 50g protein - approx 2 Tbps (meat, chicken etc) PLUS 50g vegetables (green veg, carrots, parsnips etc) PLUS 50g Starch - (approx 2tbps dry baby rice or 2tbps sweet potato)
Afternoon: 7oz milk
Dinner: 2-3tbps baby rice +3tbs veg (150g)
Before bed: 6oz
