Weaning advice required
I know that this is a hot topic at the moment and just wanted bit of guidance/reassurance really.
Phoebe is 18 weeks now and Iam breast-feeding with a formula dream feed. My intention is to start weaning her off the breast when she hits 5 months (2 weeks eek). I intend to do this gradually by dropping the 11am feed for the first week followed by the 3pm feed the following week. At 22 weeks I intend to start introducing a baby rice/porridge for breakfast for a week and then at 23 weeks introduce lunch as well. Hopefully by 6 months she will be established on these meals and then start to introduce a tea time meal. Does this sound about right??????
Whats confusing me is do you also keep the bottle feeds as well or when do I drop them???
What are you doing and how old was your little one when you started to introduce solids???

Not sure how long you keep full feeds up for though!
Hope it goes well!
