Portion sizes!
Hi mummy’s!
How much is your baby eating per meal? I saw another mum on TikTok offering what I thought was a huge portion - weetabix yoghurt and fruit and something else for breakfast! The weetabix and the yoghurt filled the plate (the rubber ones that seperate the foods) if you understand what I mean? And atm im only giving my baby porridge and 2 cubes of frozen food and some yoghurt or an Ella’s kitchen stick thing🤣 The porridge is around roughly the same amount. Should I be offering more??

I saw the same video and was wondering about the portion size. I feel like my LG eats big portions and could eat more but I do cap it. Her day looks like this: Breakfast: Crumpet with peanut butter and half a banana. Will offer the other half if she finishes quickly. Will eat all the banana and only leave about a quarter of the crumpet. Lunch tends to be a picky plate of yoghurt, babybel, melty puffs or a food pouch if we're out. Dinner is a full weetabix with a rice pudding pouch for afters. Seems a lot to me for her age but she's already used to it and does look for me somedays.

We have quite deep ice cube trays and we are lucky to get him to have half of that most days! One thing he inhales is porridge! The rest is all hit and miss. Try not to worry about TikTok’s because I really find that the worst most unrealistic place to see any kind of real life. Maybe that baby just ate like that for one meal, do we see anything else shared in that week? Ultimately some baby’s genuinely eat more , my cousin was a chunk and he used to eat loads, where as my mum was lucky if I ate a yoghurt. Xx
