I'm about to start introducing protein and have read that my dd shouldn't be given milk at the same time as it inhibits iron absorbtion. At the moment her day is as follow:
8am milk + breakfast
11.30ish vegtables + milk
3pm milk
5pm fruit and baby rice
6.45 milk and then bed time
She will sip water at luch time with her veg but will cry for her milk about 10-15 minutes later. I don't want to force her to go until 3pm before milk so can it be offered say half hour after the protein lunch if she wants it or should I persevere and just keep offering the water?
