I'm trying to get my baby on a better eating schedule, he's 10mo now. He eats usually max of 5oz of homemade baby food at a time usually it seems to be about 4oz if I was to guess. Sometimes the cubes are bigger then 1oz since I cram the food in when I'm trying to empty the blender out, so the ozs aren't always exact. He gets mad and refuses to eat anymore by the 4-5oz mark. I first do the meat/veggies, and then when he starts getting sick of that I offer a bite of fruit or yogurt and alternate bites of fruit/yogurt w/ meat/veggies. And then he just stops all together and won't take anything. I also usually have some finger foods like pieces of string cheese, waffles/toast/bread, etc on his tray and he eosn't want anymore of that either. So I'd guess he's actually full, but afterwards he drinks 4oz-5oz of formula. Is there something we should be differently so he eats more food? Or is what he's eating & drinking okay? He gets I'd guess about 30oz of formula per day at the most.
