9 MONTH FEEDING: It depends if the baby is growing well. At 9 months he eats everything including table food. He might be eating more solids and less fluid intake. Check with your peds.

Other sources ?: We want to be sure baby is hydrated, and she is if wetting every 6 hours or so.Since she can get fluid value from many foods (applesauce 95% water,vegies 60%), she may just be meeting her needs that way.If she is and she is gaining weight, she is just shifting her feeding pattern.
