Just started weaning 6mo DS this week. Doing a combination of finger foods and then pureeing a bit of whatever DD is having, for him to flick around the kitchen suck off the spoon. I hadn't planned to start on 3 meals a day, but he gets so cross when DD is eating and he's not, that giving him a little something at each mealtime keeps him quiet. But I have noticed today he's been much less interested in BF, and I feel quite full. I really don't want him to be reducing his milk intake just yet - I mean, we've literally only started a few days ago - surely that's way too soon?!
I don't feel like he's eating huge amounts as most of it doesn't get swallowed. But this is (very approximately) what he's eaten today - does it sound too much?
A little finger of banana. About 10 spoons of banana & blueberry purée.
About 5 spoons of butternut squash soup. 2 segments of satsuma (juice sucked out and membrane spat out!).
A floret of broccoli (mostly just sucked on and not really eaten). About 5 spoons of broccoli & potato purée.
