BLW - Is it possible to eat too much, too soon?

[Washersaurus]

DS2 (7mo) eats whatever we put in front of him (except cheese). We are suprised at how much he actually manages to eat, as we assumed (wrongly?) that a BLW baby generally consumes less food.

I think it is fabulous that he is eating so well, but is it possible that we are giving him too much food too soon?

We have discovered over the past couple of days that he doesn't enjoy doing solid poo's, of which we have had several a day this week.

I am no expert (hopefully this will give it a bump so people who know more than me will be along in minute) but dd was just like your ds at 7 months (unfortunately it hasn't lasted as at 22 months she is a nightmare!). I wouldn't worry, the whole point of BLW is that the regulate their own intake.

If you were shovelling purees into him and forcing it down him then it might be possible to overfeed him. But unless he's uncomfortable or has stomach pains or cries a lot afterwards I think you can assume he knows what he needs. So relax, pat yourselves on the back for offering so much tasty nosh and enjoy the experience as much as he obviously is!
