Dropping the DF?
« on: March 18, 2012, 13:59:16 pm »
L/O has been on EASY since 6 wks and we've been doing the DF since then. Hes now 5 months 1 wk. He started pureed solids and is taking in 5 bottles (including the DF) at 7-8 oz each. I know its recommended to drop the DF by 7 mnths but can you do it earlier or do you think their not ready and it was cause a NW? Would like to here your opinions

I did on my little girl at about 5 months,  I remember being so worried she would wake but it was fine!

Thanks Lu-c did you do it by decreasing the oz in the DF or did you just cold turkey drop it?

We just went cold turkey and all was fine! Let me know if you go for it, a reduction does sound like a good idea though
