Hi. I'm about to start weaning my 4 month old boy. He has the most dreadful reflux (permanently being sick - rivers, not possets!) but is a very healthy weight (17lbs) and the paediatrician has told me solids should actually help him.
The problem is he feeds every 3 hours (I tried 4 hours, it led to even more sick as had to up the amount/feed which was a disaster) and all the books and guides seem to be based on 4 hourly (everyone i know used Gina Ford and said it made weaning so much easier to have a guide to follow) but she doesn't cater for my little boy!
What time of day should I introduce his first baby rice? We feed at 7 - 10 - 1 - 4 - 7 (and dream feed at 10.15) I know ultimately he'll need lunch around 12.. I just cannot get my head around when I should introduce the first solid feed... and also then the second one.
Totally confused. Any advice - esp if anyone has my little boys issues - greatly appreciated. Stressing!
