I have just started weaning my LO who is 18 weeks old. I have done rice after the 11am BF for 4 days now. Today I introduced sweet potato after the 11am BF. My question is do I give him rice now at 5pm (to replace my 5pm BF) and then BF him at 6.30 like I normally do?
I currently do a BF at 5pm and 6.30b (top him up before bed). I have read one book telling you to give him rice after the 6pm BF whilst continually introducing a new food after the 11am BF. Another book tells me to just introduce new foods after 11am BF. So I am confused and wondered what in practice do mums who are weaning early do?
I thought it would be really messy to do a rice feed after the 6.30pm BF I'll probably need to bath him again :-).
Thank you in advance for your help.
