A 10 month feeding schedule includes three family-style meals, one or two snacks, and about three milk feeds, with your baby sharing many of the foods you eat. Predictable mealtimes support good habits.

Nutrition at 10 months
Keep iron and protein central and add calcium-rich dairy like yogurt and cheese. Save cow's milk as a main drink for 12 months, but small amounts in cooking are fine.
Encouraging independence
Offer a spoon, let your baby practice, and keep mealtimes relaxed. Messy self-feeding is a normal and important part of development.
