Would really welcome any help.
DD is 6 months and I go back to work in the afternoons from next week. She is just not interested in taking a bottle. DH will be looking after her as well as our three year old very lively twins so can't spend half the afternoon trying to get her to feed.
I put her onto solids about 2 weeks ago and she is happy on them. Currently breastfeeds in the morning, small amount of breakfast, breastfeeds 10.30ish and reasonable lunch. Then 2.30ish feed after lunchtime nap, solids at teatime and big cluster feed before bed.
I'll be out between 2 and 5.30/6pm so the main problem is the 2.30ish feed.
Would she be okay on cooled boiled water? Or will she get dehyrdated in this weather? Or could she have some kind of sloppy food with formula in?
Any help much appreciated - I'm getting stressed about it and I don't know how to get around it.
