The baby is seven months old. From the perspective of physical development, the baby's digestive system is relatively mature at this time, and the baby can be fed food other than breast milk or milk powder. Many parents are concerned about how much food or milk a baby of this age needs in a day, and want to know a rough standard. So, how much does a seven-month-old baby eat a day?
The amount a baby eats in a day at seven months old needs to be looked at separately. If the baby drinks milk every day for seven months, it is generally recommended to ensure that the amount is about 800 ml. If the baby is breastfed, the number of feedings a day needs to be around three or four times. Although babies can eat complementary foods at seven months, they still need to ensure their daily milk supply.
If the baby eats the same amount of complementary food a day for seven months, it is generally recommended that babies at this stage eat complementary food once a day. Try to breastfeed or breastfeed your baby the rest of the time. Some parents also like to add two complementary foods to their seven-month-old babies. It is recommended that two complementary foods be given, and one is preferably juice or vegetable juice or vegetable puree. That is to say, it is not recommended to eat rice noodles or rice cereal as complementary food twice.
The most important way for babies to obtain nutrition for seven months is from milk powder or breast milk. Therefore, while adding complementary foods to your baby, you still need to ensure your baby's milk supply. If the expectant mother has less milk at this time, it is recommended to provide the baby with formula milk appropriately, so that the baby can get more balanced nutrition.
