confused about food!
« on: September 17, 2006, 06:46:38 am »
Hi there,
Just a bit confused. Having read Tracy's last book, The BW SAYP, and decided it's an extremely sensible philosophy I agree with - Kieran's been on EASY since Day 1 and is doing brilliantly- I'm a bit confused about solids. Tracy suggested in the book that you should work up to offering solids at each meal BEFORE the milk feed.
But all the schedules everyone's posted seem to have solids coming after...
which is right?

Personally, I found it easier to give milk first and then solids about 20/30 mins later. Whenever I tried it the other way round they weren't interested and wouldn't eat.
At the end of the day, whatever works for you is best.

Just wanted to say i agree with pp. Whatever works best for you as long as your baby still gets all of his milk and the consumption doesn't drop.
