Hi, my son is 13 weeks old now and I’m thinking of switching to hungry baby milk as I want to approach that option first before introducing weaning as he is still young.
He was born 10lb 14oz and is currently around 20lb now so not the smallest of baby’s! He suffered really bad reflux which effected his feeding for the first 5 weeks but was put on several medications which made a change. I have noticed his hunger has started to increase massively over the last several weeks going from taking 4-6oz every 1-2 hours to 8oz and sometimes even draining 12oz bottles every 2-4 hours ! He is handling this amount well as he can keep it all down. However, he is still hungry after this but I don’t like to give more.
My first son was even hungrier than my second and was actually weaned at 13 weeks with the suggestion from HV. He was on hungry baby milk too, however I never really saw an improvement in his hungry while on that milk, he was just as hungry as before.
Is it worth trying the hungry baby milk first again or introducing baby rice etc. I would like to keep away from weaning him for another few weeks, but at the same time do not want him hungry.
TIA x
