Q&A: When Will My Baby Stop Cluster Feeding?

First, decide whether you think your daughter is truly hungry and looking for nutrition, or whether she is more interested in physical closeness to you. If you suspect the latter, take the time to be with her without offering the breast. Sing, play, or cuddle instead.

If it's really food she needs, then she is probably ready to increase her solid intake. A more 'typical' six-month-old intake would be two to four tablespoons (there are three teaspoons in a tablespoon) of rice cereal mixed with breast milk or formula twice a day, and some have added a pureed fruit or vegetable on top of this. Try to offer her some more cereal, though it's best not to choose her hungriest times of day, such as first thing in the morning.
