Hi Lolly, thank you so much for the reply.
I am ready to stop breastfeeding. I'm just trying to give a week or so between dropping each bf so that I don't get sore or get blocked ducts etc. The bottle before her afternoon nap would be perfect if she just stayed awake a little longer! She loves her sleep though.
There will be no issue with feeding her to sleep. She always goes down awake and we rarely need to go back into her. She does use a soother but I am happy to continue with that for now as she very rarely wakes up looking for it and if she does she can usually find it in the cot herself.
I suppose trying to stretch that time before her 2nd nap is probably the best place to start.
I will have a look at that link with routines you gave me anyway. Thanks!
As for lunch, she is quite good with finger food but at the same time I'm not sure how well she would manage a sandwich just yet.
Only one way to find out I suppose. Maybe toast with melted cheese might be easier to start with.
I also need to get a high chair better suited to finger feeding as the one I have I'm now finding is a disaster. Much too awkward for her. I'm looking at an Ikea one.
Really I think I am just crap at thinking of things for her to have. I over think it then too of course!
