My LG is 7 months old today. She has been on solids now for 6 weeks and, it all went very fast, she has been on 3 meals a day for 4 weeks. I want to drop her DF at 11pm but at the moment some days she has 6oz's and other days she has nothing and then of course everything in between... so I am too worried about dropping it as it feels like her top up. But she is taking less and less during the day and sometimes her first bottle is a struggle. Our routine works something like this:
7.30 - wake and Milk (6oz's) - she fights this much sometimes. Is she not waking hungry maybe?
8.30 - Bowl of porridge
9.30 - 11.30 / 12.00 - Morning Nap
12.00 - 4oz bottle. Sometimes she will have more I always make up 5oz's
13.00 - Lunch
14.00 / 14.30 - Afternoon Nap
16.00 / 16.30- 4oz Bottle
17.30 - Dinner
18.30 - Bath and bedtime routine
19.00 - 5oz's
11.00 - Dream Feed 5 oz or nothing or something inbetween
I am wondering whether I should stop the 12 bottle to make her want her afternoon and bedtime bottle more and have more so she drops BF?
Or should I just do the weaning off and bring the DF earlier and earlier or go cold turkey and see how we go???
Just be interested to know what people think! Thanks..
