    At 6 months how much is a baby suppost to be eating?
    Hi
    My baby eats 6 oz every 3 to 4 hours
    Before bed she has 1/4 baby cereal
    Is that too much or not enough?

    How much is she suppost to be eating at 6 months

    It's been years since I had a six-month-old baby, but it seems like by that age a baby should start eating strained applesauce, mashed bananas, and other mushy foods that can be swallowed easily. Juices can be added too in addition to water and milk.

    What does "1/4 baby cereal" mean? -- one-fourth cup or tablespoon or gallon drum or what?

    Didn't your doctor give you handouts on what to feed Baby at what ages?

    I fed my baby formula and breast milk. (the babys' mother did the breast milk) At that age they sleep a lot but when they wake up 9 times out of 10 they're hungry. Don't worry, your instincts will kick in.
