Ds2 had his 8m developmental checkup today, and when the HV learned that he is not hugely interested in solids, she suggested that I cut down to 2/3 feeds a day - ie breakfast, supper, bedtime - as she thinks he's not interested because he gets boob whenever he wants. Waking 2/3 times a night for boob is not helping either.
I'm not convinced. Dd was grabbing from our plates at 5.5m and wolfed down solids as soon as offered them, plus was breastfed about 5 times a day. Surely if he's not interested he's not ready?
He's between 50th and 75th centile for weight, and very active crawling, cruising and babbling.
