He is 6 months old, and we started out breastfeeding, which didn't work out due to some health problems I have and he wasn't getting enough milk. We had been supplementing w/ formula since birth, so we just switched over to that all the time. At about 3 months he started acting like he just wasn't getting full, and he was eating every hour, to hour and a half. So we started some baby food with his formula, now, he doesn't want his bottle and he will eat almost two 4 oz jars of food at a time if I let him at lunch, and a little more than a jar of cereal with fruit in it for breakfast. I can manage about two 8 oz bottles in him a day lately...is this okay, what if he wants less? He is a big baby, almost 17 lbs, well over 22 inches long. my friends baby who is the same age still is mainly formula fed and weighs 16 lbs. Mine seems super healthy...so any advice?
