POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy11 months agoA. For a 7- to 12-month-old baby, you can generally follow this meal pattern:
Daily Meal Structure:
1. Breast Milk or Formula: Continue breastfeeding or formula feeding, offering about 24 to 32 ounces per day.
2. Solid Foods: Aim for:
2 to 3 meals of solid food each day, which can include a variety of fruits, vegetables, grains, and proteins.
1 to 2 snacks in between meals as your baby gets used to solids.
Example Meal Plan:
Breakfast: Oatmeal or fruit puree
Lunch: Mashed vegetables with rice or lentils
Snack: Soft finger foods like banana or small pieces of cooked sweet potato
Dinner: Mashed or pureed meat with vegetables
Adjustments:
As your baby grows, you can gradually increase the number of meals and introduce more complex textures.
Always watch for hunger cues and adjust portions based on your baby's appetite.
Consultation:
Consult your pediatrician if you have any specific concerns about your baby's feeding or nutritional needs.
