DD is 9mo. She was exclusively bf for 7 months. She wont take a bottle. She will sometimes take puree from a spoon, but it will usually be washed around her mouth and then spat out again. So I tried blw instead. But the same thing happens - she puts it in her mouth, washes it round and spits it out again. She doesnt seem to swallw anything.
All this is complicated by the fact that I havent been able to get her into much of a routine, (although I know when she will sleep during hte day now which helps) and so it is tough to know when she is hungry, about to be hungry etc. I'm really struggling to know WHEN to feed her too.
I need to cut down on bf. I need to be able to go out and leave dh to it. She needs to be ready to go to the cm in 6 weeks.
I've emailed my HV but not holding out much hope for any real help. Does anyone have any advice? tia
