6 months and confued
« on: April 23, 2009, 17:52:44 pm »
my lo is 2 weeks shy of 6 months so i am just letting her try her cereals which she seems to like barley rice and oatmeal:)  however i am a bit confused as to how much and when my family doc gave me a sheet but when i read it at home it did not amke much sense to me...it is as follows morning milk 5-8oz next 1-2tbsp cereal with5-6oz bottle than just a bottle than cereal with another 5-6ox bottle than a 5-6oz bottle before bed i know my daughter would never be able to eat that much she currently drinks 6 oz every 4 hours plus her dream feed at 1030...and some of the posts i have read show solids after and hour or so i just dont know how to get started

I think you should do what feels right for your LO...
Maybe do 1-2TBS of solids an hour after the first AM bottle. and give an extra ounce or two of liquid to rinse it down if needed...
How is she doing with the solids so far- does she take them easily?
