That sounds fine to me hun, this is what Barney has
7 ish wakes up and has milk
8.15 breakfast, about 4 tablespoons of readybrek mixed with half a jar of fruit puree
10.30 small snack, maybe a yoghurt, he was having a feed then but has just dropped it
12.30 lunch, homemade puree but the equivalent of about 1-1 & 1/2 jars, then half a jar of pudding
3.30 milk
5.30 tea, about the same as lunch
7.00 milk
10.30 dream feed.

As you can see Barney eats WAY more and he is only a week older than Ruby so she is definately not having too much. To be honest, unless you are force feeding them I don't think you can give them too much, she won't eat any more if she's full

I think it depends on the baby.
My Lily wakes at 8am and has porridge or cereals around 9 tablespoons, then about 9.30am has 7oz of milk.
12noon, has 7oz of milk
1.30pm has dinner, sandwich and custard or yogurt,
3.30pm has 7oz of milk,
6.30pm has dinner 9 tablespoons of mashed potatoe and veg or equivalent
7.30 has 7oz of milk and goes to bed.

Shes 7 months old and is very active in the day and is always on the go.
That seems like alot now i've written it down. Am i feeding her too much. She seems to be ok and gaining weight at a steady rate so as long as their doing that should be fine.
