Hi,
I am really finding this weaning business a steep learning curve! My DS is 25 weeks and I started weaning him 2 weeks ago. He took to solids brilliantly and has loved everything he has tried, with no noticeable negative effects on his digestion.
Could someone please take a look at what I am doing and give me some feedback or suggestions on whether it looks OK? I am weaning him onto formula for his daytime feeds as he will be starting nursery three full days a week soon and I won't be able to express at work enough to provide EBM for all of his feeds
I still plan to breastfeed him for his first feed and last feeds of the day.
0700 Wake and breastfeed
(* will have breakfast at 0800 when added to routine)
0900 Nap (45mins - 1.5hrs)
1030 Bottle (7oz)
1100 Baby rice with pureed fruit
1200 Nap (45mins - 1.5hrs)
1400 Breastfeed (*will be bottle)
1430 Pureed veggies
1600 Nap (30 - 40 mins)
1700 Breastfeed
1800 Bath, massage
1845 Top up breastfeed
2200 Dreamfeed (DS seems to be gradually weaning himself off this - has gone from 35 mins to 5-10mins breastfeed)
Any ideas or hints would be really welcomed! He's still on 3.5 hourly feeds which I am hoping to move to 4 hourly soon.
Thanks
Mama
