How Much Should My Baby Eat? 💚

There’s no fixed amount of food a baby should eat! 💚 Every baby is unique and hunger changes throughout the day — depending on energy spent, last feed, milk intake, etc.

Respect Your Baby’s Fullness Cues ✨

• Turns head or closes mouth
• Pushes food away
• Plays with food instead of eating
• Throws food on the floor
• Gets fussy or cries in the high chair
• Loses interest in the meal

Early Weaning Focus 👉

In the first months of weaning, the goal is not eating big amounts but exploring, tasting, touching, and learning.

What Really Matters ✅

• Until 1 year, breast milk or formula is still the main source of nutrition — solids are for practice and discovery.
• Most babies start eating larger amounts only between 8–12 months.
• Daily exposure to a variety of foods, textures, and family meals matters most.
