My daughter just turn nine months, she usually have cereal and a fruit for breakfast, or yogurt then I give her a jar or some homemade baby food before six, so she doesn't go to bed too full. I'm thinking that its not enough.

my son gets 3 meals a day plus snacks. formula isn't enough for him anymore. we also give him at least 2 oz of water of baby apple juice or our watered down juice each day, more if it is hot

My baby is 10 months, and has three meals a day and two bottles of formula as snacks, plus another bottle of formula right before bedtime.

I was always told that by 9 months old a child should be eating 3 meals a day, plus formua and juice through out the day.

my personal opion here is that baby should have breakfast, lunch, supper and then a snack just a little while before bed

My daughter is 10 months and she has been eating 3 meals plus snacks since she was 8 months.

Yesterday for example she had

breakfast- scrambled eggs. jar of stage 3 fruit, a couple bites of a waffle plain

Lunch a sweet potato mushed up, yogurt

Dinner spaghetti w just noodles and sauce, mushed up carrots
half a jar of stage 3 fruit

she usually has 2 snacks a day puff, banana, banana cookie, mum mums, or something along that line
She also usually takes in about 24 to 28 oz of formula a day

At 9 months my baby had 3 meals and 1 or 2 snacks, but each baby is different!
