Right ladies Florence is now draining 4 9oz bottles a day and still sucking away for more at the end bless her...so just out of interest I made her an extra 4oz bottle to offer her, she guzzled 2 of that...so 11oz??? Seems a lot?! Thinking of ringing health visitor to ask about early weaning but I was guna wait till 6 month if I could but she seems so hungry ??? Any advice, she's 16 weeks on Monday, and she's on anti reflux milk so don't want to change incase it kicks off again x

i was advised to wean Ethan when he was 4 months due to reflux and him always being hungry.. best thing we ever did.. i started him on a little bit of porridge made with his milk x

Try offering her baby rice or baby porridge
I done that with grace sat her up right in her highchair and she was on 9oz of milk every 3-4 hours and since I'm introducing foods to her she's gone down to 7oz every 4 hours now
But soon as you introduce the foods she will be constipated baring in mind x

I do a morning and a bed time feed of baby porridge mixed in with her milk but now I do her a bowl of porridge then at 12/1 I give half a jar of pudding then about 6/7 the other half then a bowl of porridge but grace is almost 6 months now x@hawkie75,

@barnold, @dannielle1996, then I'd like to try her on homemade veg and fruit purées after that but we'll see how she goes x

@hawkie75, Yeah all depends how and what one she likes the most as grace didn't like baby rice only baby porridge ,but it's down to you and your own instincts when it comes to weaning give I ago with the baby rice or porridge then slowly gradually do it twice so morning and evening or afternoon and evening x
