I'm looking for some reassurance as i have lost my confidence a bit with solids feeding. My LO is 6 months but has been on solids for 6 weeks now as she has reflux. We sarted slowly with veggies and fruit and it was going well. However, recently her appetite seems to have waned. A couple of times she has also cried hard during feeding, after apparently enjoying her meal. I cannot understand why as i am always careful with food consistency, temperature, not forcing things etc. i was quite relaxed about how much she was eating, but recently my hv told me she should be on three solid meals a day and bf should be for drink only.

(btw she won't accept a bottle so have just started offering water using a sippy cup - not very successfully so far!)..
Currently she has breakfast (eg porridge with fruit) and lunch (homemade veggies puréed) but not very much. She is ebf and has always been a regular, enthusiastic breast feeder. I am concerned that she loves her milk so much that she won't increase the amount of solids she is having. She feeds every 3-3.5 hours during the day. Will she naturally decrease bf by herself?
Her lack of appetite could be teething, as she is a drooling, snotty, red faced LO at the moment. I just wanted reassurance that I'm on the right track please....life was so much easier when it was just bf!
