Confused about solids - Please help
« on: September 28, 2005, 15:56:14 pm »
Hi

Joshua is 13 weeks yesterday and weighs 16lb, he was sleeping happily from 6.15pm - 6.30am everyday. However this past week he has been waking at 4.30 for a feed, he then has about 6oz and goes back to sleep. On average he was taking about 40oz a day feeding every 3 hours (not including this new feed at 4.30am). I am really unsure what to do. Should I carry on feeding at 4.30am or is it perhaps time to give him a bit of baby rice.

Any help would be great.

Thanks

Vicki

I think you should talk to your hv. The reccommended age for starting solids is 6 months, and your ds is a lot younger than that. How about trying a formula for hungry babies?

Yeah 13 weeks is a little young I started a 4 months with baby rice and even by some people standards that was a bit early but KT was a very big and very hungry baby. Talk to your HV about it?? :D
