Hi
Could being fussy with milk feeds (exclusively bottled fed) be an indication my LO is ready to start solids?
By being fussy I mean, very distracted, not overly interested and feeds are taking a long time. Until recently he was still having 6 bottles a day (incl: DF plus a feed around 3am and then he didn't really want much at 7am). I decided to drop the dream feed and he had been feeding around 6pm ish, between 1 and 2 am, then through to 6.30am. His bottles then increased to approx 210 mls each feed.
The last couple of days it's like he doesn't want it at all. I am confident it's not illness, there is some redness on his bottom gums so I am wondering also if it's because of teeth. Otherwise he is really watching the family eat and always wants to be up near the table and is starting to grab at my drink bottle in particular for some reason.
Thoughts??
Thanks
