Ladies my 5mth old is a food monster. Ive been weaning her for a few wks now n she loves it. Before i started weaning she was having a bottle every 2hrs very rarely she waited 3 hrs. Now she's being weaned that hasn't changed n sometimes its only 1hr30 n she wants bottle. She currently all over the place with oz too,she wont have more than 6oz although sometimes its between 3oz-4oz. Should i b making her wait every 3hrs? Is this normal? Is she just a food monster?
@sammie-kate thank you will give a go this weekend. Would make a lot of sense especially as its been getting warmer.
Thank you will keep u updated 😊 xx
@missy84, I did with my daughter. When I started weaning her I started giving her cooled boiled water as the food was filling her up and she just needed a drink. We started with the water from 6 weeks old though. She's two and a half now and still loves her water! Give it a try throughout the day. She may not realise that's what she wants at first but keep trying it! Let me know if it works? X
@sammie-kate i didint know they could have water this young. That would make sense xx
I weaned my lo at 12 weeks because he was like this never went more than two hours and would only have 5oz per bottle he eventually started going longer the more food I gave him. He now prefers food to milk. I put it down to being a food monster haha and I just gave him a bottle when he wanted it ☺
Oh right so keep the bottles the same but try giving fruit and veg to try etc for the taste. That sounds easy enough x
@xxjadeleannebxx i just started simple. My first one was broccoli puree and she loved it. She now eats lots of veg n fruit (pureed obv). Keep it simple n have fun with it. Always give her a bottle first then a few spoonfuls of veg/fruit n go from there 😊 x
@missy84, fingers crossed it works!
