I am about to start weaning my nearly 6 month old. So far he is exclusively breastfed. i am trying to decide whether to keep it that way or introduce formula - maybe one evening bottle or just for cup and food. My question is what do other ebf people use for milk in food like porridge, cheese sauce etc. I don't think I could keep up the expressing for every breakfast.
Also, why can't we give then full fat cows milk until they are one when that is what is in a lot of the ready prepared baby cereals eg organic bananna porridge which say suitable from 4 months?
Can I use cows milk in food from 6 months? If so why can't I use it in bottles at 6 months?
Or have I misunderstood the guidelines?
