Hi all
Hv visited this week to do 9 mo check up. My dd is in the 91-95th percentile for height and weight- so she big girl, but perfectly proportioned...
All went well, however hv recommened I cut milk down from 19 oz (8 in morn and 11 at bedtime) I know it is a lot, but dd is big- i could not breastfeed so I feel like i am over compensating bu giving her loads of formula still- i know its silly. She rarely gets ill though - I think the milk has something to do with this (plus lots of fruit!)
Anyway I have cut the milk down to 14 oz a day. Mealtimes, the hv has said finger food is best now. No/ less pureed meals or jars. She has plenty of fruit finger food and toast but lunch and dinner were always pureed. Yeaterday I gave her toast with cheese - plus a baby bel for lunch and she didnt eat much of it an the mess was everywhere haha!!
My question is- is it ok to still give her a pureed / lumpy consistency tea- and lunchtime just give her more adult type food- as she still seems so young, the mess is shocking (ocd lol) and she seems to chuck more of it than actually EAT it!?
