How many bottles of formula or breast feeds?
don’t starve your baby…..unless she is supplementing enough food i would cut her bottles her main sorce of nutriction is the milk of formula until they are 12 mo….I also would call your loacl ask a nurse they can help you aswwell….I don’t know who told you to do that but that really worries me….they have at least 4 to 5 a day still i think….i always just feed my baby a bottle when she was hungery…
If you are trying to wean your daughter off the breast then give her any bottle feeds she will take. My son was 8 months when I first started to wean him and I tried him every feed with a bottle. He wouldn’t accept some of them but some he did. My 2 girls loved their bottles at 6 months but I was quite young myself and I think I may have starved them in the stubborness of my not wanting to bottle feed them. Poor babies… but let’s face it we all want to be perfect in the eyes of the wonderful health visitors!!!!!) Sounds like your baby girl is responding well to weaning. Good luck. and btw she’s old enough now for a little baby rice now if you and she are interested!
What do you mean you are weaning her? Babies should get breastmilk and/or formula until they are a year old. Even after they start solids and move on to table food, they should still be getting a rather large portion of their nutrition from bottle/breast. When my girl was 6 months she was on jar food and bottle. He routine was this: -Three “meals” a day of jar food (as much as she wanted) followed by a bottle (as much as she wanted). These “meals” were given at regular meal times according to when the rest of the family ate. -In between these “meals” she got bottles, as many and as much as she wanted. At 9 months she followed the same schedule, but was switched table foods instead of jar and was given a sippy of water with the food. At this time she also started getting solid snacks in addition to the bottle in between meals. Then at one year, the bottle was taken away and she was on solids completely.
