I have no idea what to do in terms of when to breastfeed and when to feed other stuff and how to do it. My mother tells me this is when I should start introducing cereal in his bottle. However he is breastfed. I work during the day and he takes 2 bottles during this time which he takes reluctantly - my sister has to try all these tricks to get him to take it which he finally does. I breastfeed every other feeding because I want to keep my milk supply up and breastfeed as much as possible. We are on 3.5 hour easy trying to extend to 4. So people say to give cereal before bed, but I want to breastfeed before bed. I try to give a 1oz bottle with a teaspoon of cereal after I breastfeed but he won't take it I think because he is full. I am afraid if he give him the bottle before I breastfeed than he won't breastfeed. Can someone explain to me how I can start introducing cereal and at what times during the day or night are optimal to do this.
