Copyright 2009 Minti en-uk Re: How Much Food At Each Meal? toosh Sounds about right to me. This is about what my oldest was eating at this age. She will let you know if she is hungry. If you are worried it's not enough just offer her snacks in between - she won't eat them if she's not hungry. Just make sure you keep balancing what she eats - fruit, vergies, meat, ... http://www.minti.com/questions-and-answers/discussion/414165/how-much-food-at-each-meal//#414584 http://www.minti.com/questions-and-answers/discussion/414165/how-much-food-at-each-meal//#414584 Mon, 11 Jun 2007 23:50:04 -0700 Re: How Much Food At Each Meal? rockclimbr4400 It is enough food. Sounds normal to me. If you calculate her solids and her formula she is getting enough. Now, when you stop with the formula you will have to up the solid intake, but sounds like your doing a good job. She is old enough to communicate with you if she is still hungry (usually will cry if ... http://www.minti.com/questions-and-answers/discussion/414165/how-much-food-at-each-meal//#414306 http://www.minti.com/questions-and-answers/discussion/414165/how-much-food-at-each-meal//#414306 Mon, 11 Jun 2007 17:58:00 -0700 Re: How Much Food At Each Meal? Ngairi Sounds like she is getting enough to me. As others have she will let you know if she wants more food. If she is healthy and putting on weight, there should be no problems.

Tadexpress The amount of protein is roughly the size of the palm so its a relative guide when feeding children, I was an overfed child that grew into an obese adult and lived with the nasty namecalling and taunts from peers in between.

You seem to have things nicely balanced and she'll let you know if she's hungry. Your observations are also your best guide happy and active she's getting enough.

Hi I think you are doing the right thing, she will eat as much as she want to, that's what my daughter did & she was eating the same amount as what your daughter is at 10 months, but I would offer her maybe 2 bits of bread at lunch & a jar of fruit or yogurt.

That's what I gave Charli & it was enough but if your daughter doesn’t want that much that's fine as long as she has a healthy appetite & is eating what you are offering that's the main thing.

If you are concerned go & see your doctor & just see what he/she thinks.

Hope this helps.
