...start giving your baby three meals a day? My daughter is nearly walking, but shes only 7 1/2 months old. She's still waking up at night, which for the record I have no problem with, but it makes me think is she getting enough food during the day? She has 5-6 full breastfeeds per day, plus 2-3 bits of fruit, a cruskit, and dinner. I'm thinking of starting her on breakfast too,

What has been your experience with solids? Especially if your baby moved early?

Um, our girl started solids at 3 months, and has been on brekkie since about 5 months, she has slept through the night since 2weeks old, and has arvo tea @ 3.30-4pm, she's on 3 formula feeds a day and is going well,

Hi Kat
I have 3 children and each of them have started solids at different ages and progressed at different speeds - my youngest started at 6 months months and rapidly went from one meal to three in a few weeks.
He loves brekkie and unlike my other two preferred to get up and eat rather than have a snggle and a breasfeed in bed.
He is a very active little baby as your little one sounds like she's on the go too, I would give breakfast a try if she doesn't want it she won't eat it.
Goodluck maybe increase the protein in dinner too to fill her for longer : )

Hi Kat :) My little boy rapidly went from starting solids to having three meals a day in a couple of weeks, starting when he was almost 5 months old. He's a very active little guy - on the move all the time - and now at 10 months is having 3 meals plus morning & afternoon tea, along with about 500ml formula a day! (he self weaned at 8 months).
