I hope this is the right place to post this. My LO is almost 5 1/2 months old and we have been doing the dream feed and he's been doing great with it. I've just started solids with him about a week ago. He eats about 2 times a day, one after morning feed and another in the afternoon. I was going to start a third feeding probably in about another week. He's started to not take that much during his 4 feedings during the day (about 7 oz. instead of usual
, I figure it's because of the rice cereal. Well, he usually take 8 oz. at dream feed and would still drink pretty much all of it. Well, yesterday morning, his first feeding of the day, he had maybe 6 1/2 oz. This morning, he only had 5 oz and was not hungry anymore.
I have a few questions. Because of the solids and the 8 oz. at dream feed, should I cut down the amount we give him at dream feed? Is he ready to drop the dream feed? I understand that to start dropping dream feed, you should drop 1 oz at a time and give 1 more oz during the day. If I start to drop 1 oz. tonight at dream feed, do I start giving him the 1 more oz tomorrow during the day? or should I give him 1 more oz. during a feeding today since I'll be dropping 1 oz. from dream feed? I hope that made sense.
TIA!
