6mo one boobie or solids?
« on: March 01, 2016, 09:45:11 am »
This morning my 6mo old ate like this:
WU/BM 7am..... only one side (wasn't interested in more)
8am the other side
9am solids (less than usual)
10-10:30 nap
11 BM (about to happen)

This isn't usually the flow of things. I usually breastfeed both sides and then an hour later offer solids.
My question is, whether in the case of only eating from one side, should I offer the other side when she seems hungry again or should I move on to her usual eating schedule?

Not sure why she wasn't hungry. She had one NF at 4am.

I'd probably do what you did this morning and offer the other side after a bit. Milk is more important than solids at this age.
