Just a quick question really!
my nearly 6 month old baby is just starting to eat baby rice. should she start sleeping through the night better as of now because of a fuller tummy or is it more to do with age?

I think if she's been more wakeful the past few weeks, it might have been an empty tummy waking her. But if she's always woken a lot, it won't make any difference!

My DD when from 3x waking to sleeping 11-12 hours when weaned. She dropped the last night feed a week after introducing the third meal in the day.

She did have reflux though and weaning really helped with this.

Weaning made no difference to my DD's night sleeping

Sorry ... Baby rice is not hugely filling

If it is hunger, things like complex carbs and protein will be more filling

pasta seemed to do the trick with DS a few times but then he got a cold and was back to waking up again :(
