Dropping last feed

[pilkers]

I have pretty much followed Evie's lead when it comes to food/milk etc. She absolutely loves her solids...she'll eat anything and everything and then she wants more.

The thing is she has two milk bottles a day... one in the morning and one before bed...but for the last 4 nights she hs refused most of the last bottle and pushes it out of her mouth. She has slept through all of the nights. She has eaten much more solids at teatime instead...

I get the impression that she is self weaning off her night time milk but I'm worried it's too early and that she won't get enough vitamins etc...

any thoughts??????

If she's not wanting the nighttime one how about giving her some milk with one of her meals?

I was thinking of perhaps making her night time milk into porridge..????

since starting solids have had to giver her extra milk in her food cos she was still only having about 16oz of formula per day... now she's dropping down to about 10/12oz per day which is way below the recommended amount

She does eat plenty of milk and dairy already though...

Oh I didn't think of that

That would be a good idea and worth a try I think

As it's the vitamin & mineral side of things you are concerned about, there are a few good infant multivitamins out there.
