Started weaning dd at 6 months and have just moved on to stage 2 this week (she was 10 weeks prem so have taken it slowly as advised)so has only just started having protein. Weight gain had slowed down 4 weeks ago and this week she actually lost weight I am bf quite a lot (about 8 times a day - though she only has a good bf when she is sleepy/at night). She won't take formula or bm in a bottle or cup but I add it to her breakfast. I just feel so worried. I need some tips on how to increase cals. I don't have a lot of confidence in my pureeing abilities (!!) so have been giving her Ellas Kitchen pouches which she likes but only has about half a pouch at a time. I'd like to try cooking so I have more control over calorie content.
