Weaning and Teething

I have just started to wean my LO with small amounts of baby rice. He is teething though and has started to take 4oz at some of his feeds where normally he would take 8oz (im assuming this is because his gums are sore). If he has not feed well should I stop giving the baby rice until he starts taking the full amount again?

At the moment I am only offering him baby rice after the 11am feed but maybe i should stop altogether and wait..

Hi Poperdy!
I'm not sure how old your LO is but i would say if you are unsure then ask your Health Visitor. But if you are only offering once a day and after a feed then i would say you're ok. But like i said if you're worried give your health Visitor a ring.
