he is 4 months old and 7 lbs. how much food do you guys feed your babies? |
We recommend good quality dry food only, 3 x day up to about 4 -6 months depending on size and then tapering off to twice a day. For really small/thin kids, stay with 3x 'til they get good and solid. I don't really give an absolute measurement/serving, whatever he eats in about 15 minutes time is usually the right amount. Watch the intake of treats, many are high in fat and can pack on unhealthy weight quickly. Carrots are a good snack and cheerios make a good training treat. ONE cheerio= reward. I do give 1/2 small milkbone once/ day for tarter control.
