When should I wean a 5 month old off the DF?
« on: August 07, 2008, 20:51:21 pm »
Hello-

I was just wondering when I should wean my 5 month old off the DF?  We have been on the 4 hour EASY routine for about 13 days.  He does not wake up in the night to feed! 
He started eating rice cereal about 1 month ago, but we haven't tried any other baby foods yet.  Probably will try oatmeal next then try baby food.

Thanks!

Tracy recommends weaning the DF at 7 months.

Sounds like your lo is doing fantastically, I would stick with the DF for now, especially since there is a big growth spurt  at 6 months.
