Hi sorry not be on here much, just wondered what you thought really, Lacey is my 4th baby but things have changed so much since my last baby 10yrs ago by now she was on solids lacey is 13 wks old on sunday and she is still feeding every 2 hours 7to 8 oz up till about 10.30 her last bottle then up at between 5 and 6.. i gave her some baby rice for the past 2 days and she seems fine with it, i was going to giver her some baby puddings the ones from 4 months i thought she might prefer the taste as she isnt too impressed with the rice, she is already weighing 14lb 9oz she has baby juice too diuluted wuith cool boiled water, what do you think? shall i shant i? 10yrs ago my baby was on rusks and puddings and juice with er usual milk as well, as i always give that first, i dont know i boughtit today but not sure what to do? some nights i only get 4 hours sleep!

hope you are all well has rachie@w been on at all? xx

Hi, at the end of the day its completly your choice however personally i wouldnt give my baby food until at least 16 weeks and i know what you mean about a child that wont sleep.

Could you try feeding her every 3 to 4 hours but more say 9ozs to try and make her stomach a bit bigger so she can hold more at night?

Good luck whatever you decide, you know your baby best

The advice now is to wait as close to 6 months before feeding as they sy this helps stop allergies and they digest the food better. I usally make 5 months.

my first two were taking solids at 16wks but luca didnt take well to it he got tummy cramps and was very unhappy. his tummy just wasnt ready so he was bf exclusively until 7.5 months when he was finnally ready. all babies are different get advice from g.p or hv and if you do go ahead then go very slowly one veg or fruit at atime so if you do get a bad reaction you can avoid that food for a few weeks and then try again.

hope that helps
