I am a mother of 3, the youngest who is 9 months right now. With all of them by the time they were 7 1/2 months, I was feeding them almost everything that the family eats. The only exceptions are: milk, sugary foods-such as candy, meats unless it is cooked to where it is tender an just falls apart, and of course anything that has nuts in it. As soon as they got their teeth, I began feeding them any meats. And it was not until they were a year that I gave them milk or foods that contain nuts due to the chance of an allergy. I would give them sugary foods only once in a great while as a very special treat after they turned one and had their first cake and ice cream. I did not have a daily schedule for my kids other than their nap and bed times. Other wise it was whatever happened, until they got to about 2 1/2 and had to get on routines for starting head start at 3 years. I always made sure that all three kids got into the routine of going to bed for the night no later than 9pm. And I always made sure that they took one nap in the morning and one nap in the afternoon, until they were older and only needed one nap per day.

My son is eating an average of 26 ounces of formula a day (the same amount as before he started solids) and I offer 2-3 tablespoons of fruit in the morning and 2-3 tablespoons of vegetables in the afternoon, always after a bottle. He's very good at indicating if he still wants more, sometimes he wolfs down a meal of solids and is even sad (until I distract him) when it's all gone, sometimes he takes two bites and then turns his head. I'm fine with either. Other than that I give him a piece of breadstick or a quarter of a rice cake mid-day, but that's just for practice and play even more than his regular solid meals. I'd be surprised if the amount he actually swallows is more than about a teaspoon, but he does have loads of fun for a good 10-15 minutes manipulating the food and gumming it. Most of it ends up on his hands, the tray, his face and his waterproof sleeved (honestly it looks like a rain poncho) bib.

stage 2 and 3 baby foods... lots of peekaboo and story times and spending time walking around the house and outside pointing out things and saying the names of them... my daughter is 4 and a half months old but i worked as a child developement specialist for a while... also at that age baby should have 2 naps a day... an early morning one and a mid to late afternoon one. should still be taking 32 ozs of formula a day and maybe one veggie and one fruit spanned out through the day (as babyfood) and can have watered down 100% apple juice. Play centers are also nice to have... not ones that role especially if you have stairs but ones that sit still that baby can jump and play in so that the little legs can strengthen and the baby is entertained also follow your instincts your little one will let you know what needs to happen next
