Hi,
Around 2 and a half weeks ago I started to introduce solids to my breast fed 6 month old. As I had waited for the full 6 months, my health visitor advised that I move through the different weaning stages quite quickly. She is now on three small meals a day - mostly homecooked veg and fruit such as carrot, sweet potato, peas, apple, banana and lentil, with porridge in the morning and the odd organic jar of food. I am still breastfeeding 4-5 times a day in addition to this.
My baby has had 7 poos today mostly quite solid but also with a couple of very runny diarrhea type ones. She also seems a bit out of sorts.
I am a wee bit worried. Have i moved too fast here? Should I slow down? Will her system be toiling to cope? Or is it normal to see such a change? She only had 1-2 poos a day when exclusively breastfeeding.
All advice appreciated
