My baby is 5 months 1 week.
She is breast fed, but I’ve attempted to combi feed, unsuccesssfully. She has varied between taking small amounts of formula in a bottle to point blank refusing and hysterically screaming the place down.
Today was the latter, trying to be given a bottle from her grandparents while I had a few hours away.
I’m thinking about starting weaning shortly in the next week or so. Will this offer me any more freedom than the situation I’m currently in? Does anyone have any experiences of this?
My parents tried to give her in 2 different types of bottle and a sippy cup but she got very upset.
I just want to start having the odd couple of hours away here and there to get her used to it. She’s very very clingy to me and i want her to be able to cope without me when I go back to work at a year.
Thanks
