I starting weaning dd2 when she was 5 months. I did the same with dd1 and have great success and fun with trying different foods, textures and it really helped her sleep better. Now I have forgotten it all. I also started introducing bottles to dd1 around this time so the daily routine was much more structured.
Dd2 eats twice a day, breakfast and dinner (purrees, just veg and fruit for now until 6 months). I breastfeed her a lot and she doesn't sleep well at all. What should my day look like? Can anyone give me an example of their routine?
Thanks :)

I'm a first timer but would love to hear about a few different daily patterns. We BF but have two FF bottles.

I started DD at 5.5 months. She had 6oz of formula at 8.30, 12.00, 15.00, 17.00 and 7oz at 20.00. I then started with purée at about 1pm first then after a few weeks added in purée at about 4pm. We were very hit and miss though, if we had a busy day out and about she had no solids if we had an at home day I'd add in some natural yoghurt after the 5pm bottle. DD is now 7 months she has 3 solid meals a day (mixture of puree/mashed and finger foods) and were just starting to drop the 5pm bottle. Hope that helps (first baby so I have no idea if I'm doing it right but it works for us) Smile
