My Ds will be 6 months in a few weeks, and will be starting full time nursery at the same time as I'm going back to work. Therefore, I basically have to let them wean him, although I have to give him a taste of everything before they will give it to him in case of reactions etc.
I need a bit of advice though - he currently has 7 - 8 oz formula at roughly 7am, 11, 3, 6.30 and a small amount at 10.30pm.
When he goes to nursery, I'll still give him the 7am and evening milk and see if he cuts out the night feed. BUT, they do lunch at 11.30 and tea at 3.30. This alternates between fresh veg or fruit purees.
Should he still have the 11am bottle before lunch? what about at 3 ish? will he have milk and then tea? If I was going to wean him myself, I would have done tea at around 5 ish, then bath, milk and bed at 6-7.
Also, they can offer breakfast when he goes in at 8 but not all kids have this. Should he be having breakfast? and what do they have at 6 months old? am a bit wary of giving wheat products too soon.
I would be really grateful if anyone has been in similar situation and had to start a weaning routine at around these times.
