How much should my Baby eat 6-24 months?

A good rule of thumb when you’re figuring out just how much to give your Baby during each meal: Start small and work your way up once he or she gets the hang of eating. 

You can use the following baby feeding general guidelines.

For 6-8months
Start with 2-3heaped tablespoons per feed. Gradually increase the spoons to one third of a NICE cup(about 5-6tablespoons).

9-11months
From the previous months increase to at least one-third of “TUMPECO”. A TUMPECO is 500ml. (about 8-11tablespoons)

12-24months
You can now increase at least half a TUMPECO (250ml).

Children have small stomachs so they get satisfied quickly and hungry quickly. This is why they need to eat small frequent meals rather than 3 main meals alone.
