Looking for some weaning advice please!
Have started weaning my 6months DS around a week ago and he is loving it - trying to take it slow but he would happily eat 3 meals a day and snacks if I let him! At the moment we have breakfast or lunch (baby porridge & fruit or a veggie mix) and dinner. He gets breastmilk in between before going for naps (always been a catnapper, 4 or 5 half hour naps either in the car or upstairs with baby monitor on).
He is also breastfed during the night but gets formula at bedtime (has done since a month old otherwise he would be up in two hours wanting more). He has a good bedtime routine, has a dummy and is still in our room. most nights goes down easily excluding the usual teething probs we have recently encountered.
My questions are 1 - he hasn't dropped any night time feeds (up 2-3 times a night) and never slept through. Was hoping he would once we started solids! Nothing settles him until a feed whether it's breast milk or formula feeds. Any advice?!
And also, should I be letting him wean at his own pace (very quickly so it seems) or try hold him back a little? Worried about overloading his little tummy too fast in.
Any advice gratefully appreciated :-)
