After a chat with my HV, I started to wean my DS about a week and a half ago. It's going really well, but he seems to want more and more food.
I'm just giving him breakfast and tea and the mo and maintaining his milk intake. I mix his baby rice with about 2oz of formula, and he has about 7oz of formula for his dreamfeed. He then has 4/5 bf throughout the day.
This morning my DS nailed, and I really mean demolished, a small-ish banana mixed with 1.5 tablespoons of baby rice. He was then crying for more. I'm keen to make sure he's not starving by giving him a bf an hour or maybe two before any solids.
Can anyone else advise? Really keen not to overfeed him. He's on the 75th percentile with lots of gorgeous chub and rolls. Already starting to crawl, so seems to burn off a lot of energy...it's just all a bit of a minefeld!
