lo just ate all 11 teaspoons of cow and gate baby rice mix

[bumbly]

first two days of weaning ate 2-3 teaspoons but today ate whole lot

what do i do next????

bigger portion or more times same 1rice+10milk teaspoons per day???

totally clueless

any help please

How often are you giving lo it? One meal a day?Once my lo was eating well at one particular time I introduced it at another -so for example breakfast and dinner.

3rd day weaning

at midday so far

also how do you know when fed enough/too much???

I'd go steady. Not too fast. Make sure her nappies are ok on what she's having now before you increase. They can get bunged up.

Make sure he keeps up his milk intake and take it slowly. If he refuses milk feeds cut back the rice. He doens't need solids for nutrition as much as milk (main source until a year), it is more to introduce flavour and texture. Don't offer a second meal until he is onto "real" food (you can skip rice btw) and takes a decent portion. hth

You could try and introduce some at dinner time. I would say 11 spoons is quite a lot. The packets are usually quite good at giving guidelines. You could also try lo on some pureed fruit. I pureed a lot of stuff for a few months and then switched to blw which I find easier.

Remember that your lo will be still getting most of their nutritional needs met by milk so try not too worry about how much they eat.

I would leave off the baby rice
its nutritionally pretty pointless and can stuff them up

how old is little one? 26 weeks?? you can give cooked carrot sticks and pureed carrot or any veg or fruit puree

what is blw?

given two days worth of carrot puree and now trying something else like sweet pot today

only midday feed and he takes half a tomee tiptee pot

is this ok?
