DD is 8 months now and started with BLW at 6m. She has really taken to it, to the extent that I am mildly concerned that maybe she is eating too much. I know the whole point is that she is able to regulate her own appetite but, in your collective experience, is this about right? Using today as an example:
Breakfast: Almost a whole weetabix, milk and 1/3 banana.
Mid-morning: 1/3 banana
Lunch: Cheese and ham sandwich (1 slice of bread), whole kiwi fruit, final 1/3 banana
Mid-afternoon: no-sugar biscuit
Teatime: Mini burger (100% beef, nothing added, about the size of the circle you'd make with forefinger and thumb). a few pieces of broccoli, 1/4 of a medium tomato, 3tbsp natural yogurt with 2tsp apple puree
Normally lunch would be a bit healthier than a sandwich but we were out today and had to take something with us.
She also gets through about 600ml formula and shows no signs of wanting to cut this down at all. She is quite big, last measured on 98th centile for height and 75th for weight at 6m or so. She looks, to me, about right, chunky I guess, but not sumo-baby. What d'you all think?
