My baby is now 7 months old and he has been EBF up until about 5.5 - 6 months then I started him on baby food. Now he hardly eats that, he wants to eat what we are eating and anytime he sees my other kids eat he makes a funny noise when he wants something they have and won't stop until they give him a "bite". Does anyone else feed their 7 month old table food and if so what kinds or should I just be following his lead and trying a little bit of everything ?? He is starting to not be as interested in nursing either, only nurses about 4-5 times a day ( including night time ) and for not very long maybe 10 min. max at each nursing. Is this enough fluids for him ? Thanks for your support and comments ladies I really appreciate it.
