My DD is turning 6 months in 2 days. I know she is ready for weaning and she is a healthy, large baby, but i'm terrified of the extra work involved. I've a 2.5yo DS -- v active and still needing feedingand well as a lot of attention especially at meal times. Am on my own looking after them and it's very intense and exhausting.
Any mums out there who went through this and can offer any tips on routine, or how you managed through it?
At the moment I BF my DD on demand, every 2-3hrs ish...
With my DS weaning was all easy-ish - no screaming toddler at meal times and I had plenty of time to sit and play with my DS for up to an hour at a time giving him food, then wash and clean as well as prepare purees. This time round I've hit rock bottom already on energy level, and I've not even started the baby feeding...!:(
