Maybe ease up or avoid fruit for a few days and see what happens?

How many times a day are you offering solids Em? Also, has the very limited diet been advised by a Paed or Paed Dietician?

At the moment we are only offering her solids twice a day. Breakfast and lunch.
@everyonetalkaboutpopmusic unfortunately we are still awaiting the dietician referral. We've been slow introducing foods because of the reflux so will introduce a single fruit or veg for a couple of days to see if anything triggers it. I guess maybe I need to introduce dairy and see how she reacts - she has a few symptoms that suggest cows milk intolerance such as eczema and cradle cap, but it was the health visitor that suggested it could be a dairy intolerance, she's a big girl and I know typically an intolerance would make it harder for them to gain wait.

Offering solids twice a day is a lot at 6.5 months. Some of the things you are experiencing could be partly down to the fact that her digestive system is still a little immature. Could you just offer food at breakfast only for a few days and see if she improves any? The guidelines say that you should move up to offering solids 3 times a day between 8 and 9 months so there's no rush to do it yet

Hace you found the MN Weaning talk yet too?

No value in baby rice at all. It can harm their digestive systems. Could you switch for something else? Scrambled egg/proper porridge/toast fingers?

Oh @everyonetalkaboutpopmusic that's good to know. I'll try reducing it down. I thought we were going slow with weaning but you are right, there's no rush!
I haven't found the weaning talk yet - need to find that!
@tittygolightly I didn't realise that. I'll try something different.

I'd avoid baby rice if she's poss cmpi

In fact, with reflux and allergy you could stop weaning altogether for another couple of weeks...

You could also try Neocate spoon

Thank you so much!
@onlyabitsressed I'd never heard of neocate spoon, this forum is great!

I possibly sound a bit clueless, but what is Neocate Spoon? Disclaimer: it's me with the CMPA, not the DC

But bc might be cow protein intolerant too!

Neocate spoon is special (prescription) food for babies with cmpi!
