My LB is 6 months and for the last couple of weeks i’ve been trying to switch to formula. He’s on dairy free which is vile and hadn’t taken a bottle of expressed but I have still had some success in the last two days most notably 4oz before bed from a bottle the last two nights. He was with his dad ysyetday morning while I worked and didn’t take milk but also didn’t look for it - I was back at 1.30pm.
I thought we were doing so well but then last night he was up every twenty minutes. I use BF settle him and we bedshare (reluctantly).
My questions are: is he up more to try and keep my supply up? Should I take breast away at night - I was hoping to keep it going for convenience overnight. Also wondered people’s Thoughts on taking this opportunity to get him in his own bed - but don’t want to traumatise him with two much at once??
We have started weaning and he is in two ice cubes of puréed veg a day which he enjoys.
