Hiya,
I have a 7.5mo breastfed baby who has started rejecting the breast in day since weaning. I've tried very slowly to introduce food but she's really keen! All of my friends babies are drinking same amount of feeds. Some are formula fed so know for sure.
Day:
Wake - breastfeed but only 5 mins
8am - porridge with 3oz formula
930am- nap
11am wake - rejects breast!
12am - rejects breast!
12:30ish - ravenous for food. Will eat toast, any purée on offer. I make veg puree with blended butter beans or lentils and mix in cream cheese.
After lunch rejects breast! Has sips of water with lunch
2ish nap 2
3-4ish wakes from nap. Rejects breast!
5pm will take breast
6pm dinner - spinach pancakes and chicken / veg puree last night with water
7-7:30 will breastfeed before bed
Wakes 1-2 times and has a breastfeed for 10 mins to 1 hour.
Should I stop the food?
