need advice

DD is 7 months old. in the last wk or so, she seems to want to eat all the time. she will eat a 4 oz jar of food mixed with cereal, and still throw a fit when its all gone.. or we feed her then sit down to eat and she throws a fit because we're eating and she wants some. can she really be that hungry? we feed her every 2-4 hrs.

do you feed LO the cerel? i suggest you mix in baby food with the cerel it thickens it up and might fill her up.
im thinking of something else in the mean time im watching what others are going to say!

she could be having a growth spurt. consult her pediatrician to see how much she should be eating.

that's what we do. she won't eat just plain cereal...

are you still giving her formula or breastmilk before/after her jarred food? if not that will help and is a must.

maybe shes mad that shes not sitting with you? let her sit in a highchair at the table with you guys and have some cherrios or some puffs or something.

DS throws a fit because he only wants to eat whatever were eating. Hes almost 10 mo now but hes been doing it for a while. If I dont eat it he wont. If Im eating it he has to also.

she gets 4-6 oz of formula after. sometimes she's happy after that. other times she just wants more formula.


also, lately, she seems to have days where she doesn't want food, she'll cry for her bottle, and won't eat the food.

Oh my DS sits and SCREAMS at you. Im talking full on tears, trying to climb on your lap, ear piercing screaming.

we've started doing that more and more too. MIL was just eating stew and giving DD beans out of it. they ate the whole bowl together, then she gave DD the other half of her breakfast (according to DH she didn't want the rest, just wanted her bottle). she still threw a fit afterwards...

i was going to say that its normal for you LO to be really hungry some days and other days she wont eat much. My son still does that were he doesnt want to eat much. its normal when your Lo is hungry she will eat or not eat. its normal dont worry hun! =)
i dont know if she can have these yet but my son loves them!!
