When did you add a third meal of solids for your baby?

My son is 7 months and eats two meals of solid food a day. For lunch he has maybe 1/3 cup of oatmeal cereal and 4 oz of fruit puree. For dinner he has 4 oz of veggie puree and 2-4 oz of fruit. He also practices self feeding with Gerber Puffs and whole wheat toast sticks. When should I add in a third meal of solids in the morning?

    my little girl will be 8 months old in 3 days and she has oatmeal with bananas or rice with apples for breakfast maybe some cheerios, then for lunch she has a 4 oz veggie with about 2 oz of a gerrber dessert like yogurt or custard. Then dinner we mix about 3 oz or cereal with a 4 oz jar of fruit and for snacks she loves her puffs and yogurt bites. She's had this routine for about 2 months now so i think whenever you feel he is ready he'll be fine with a little breakfast. Good luck!
