#asktheexpert how many times we should give meals for 7 months old baby

A. For a 7-month-old baby, you can offer 2 to 3 small solid meals per day along with breast milk or formula feeds. At this age, solids are a complement to milk, not a replacement. Each meal can include soft, mashed foods like fruits, vegetables, or cereals in small amounts. Continue breastfeeding or formula feeding as the main source of nutrition, usually 4–5 times a day. Watch your baby’s hunger cues and gradually increase meal quantity and variety as they show more interest in eating.
