vonn81 > my boy has the same prob recently. he prefers brown rice cereal n the food my hb n i eat. all the way, he was ok w porridge n puree n cereal.

but if we eat his porridge in front of him, he also want it. so in the end, wat we do is to eat same porridge w him everytime.

i think my boy becomes so choosy now is 'cause he's exposed to too much sweet stuff alr (fr fruit puree n the cereals which r v sweet). so even pumpkin porridge n sweet potato porridge r not yummy enough for him. :(

need to hv more varieties alr. 8+mths only, alr so choosy. when he's toddler, i really jialat. hahaha... :D think hv to use stock to make porridge again.

regarding their daily meal intake, mine is :
morning - milk
lunch - porridge / puree / cereal
tea break - milk
dinner - porridge / puree / cereal
night (b4 sleep) - milk

Mrspuppy, yaya what i mentioned i think true arh...cos i only give her fruits puree and vege puree for start after the rice cereal ( heniz) aiyo then dao di correct to give puree or not leh..i think giving fruits puree are western ways right?? many still give porridge once bb starts weaning...

Ya lor, my dd doesnt like plain water. the daily intake is same s mine..hehe u giving BM?? or ds also 8mths ++??

orrhs, i only substitute one meal with semi-solids...means:

1) breakfast 8.30am = alternate days cereal / milk

2) lunch 12pm = baby porridge

3) tea break = milk / cereal , also alternate, everyday wil hav fruits.

4) dinner 6.30pm = milk

5) before bedtime = milk

Milk is still the main source of food at this age coz it contains nutrients needed for their growth.
My menu for 8-month-old DD:

Morning: milk feed
11-12noon: 2T oatmeal cereal with 3tsp mashed cod (steamed), 15ml pureed veg (all mixed in ebm); 1 wedge of papaya
1pm+: milk feed (nap)
4-5pm+: 2tsp sweet potato with 1-2tsp pork (pushed thru sieve) (mixed in ebm)
6+: milk feed
8+: 2T cereal with 30ml pureed veg (mixed in ebm); 1 wedge of papaya
10+-12midnite: milk feeds

She eats so little carbo n doesn't like the brown rice gruel so i give her Healthy Times cereal since she prefers that. My friend said tt my bb eating much less than her DD at 8months. Just wondering if this is enough?
