I had a paediatrician appointment yesterday for annabelle it was because she is sick so much and has terrible wind and painful hiccups etc.
he was lovely and checked her thoroughly. said its def reflux, prescribed some thickner and said she needs to be weaned. i said i had planned on waiting till the rfecommended 6 months etc but he said she will be happier on solids as her tummy isnt dealing well with all the milk she needs ( she has 7 ounce bottles every 3 hours in the day and sleeps through the night almost)
Soooo today she had her milk then a bowl of baby rice. was so sweet she ate it all up!!!!!!!!!!!!
he said baby rice, sweet potato and baby cereal for now. basically the 4 month plus stuff.
but the book on weaning i have says even for 4 month olds to introduce pear, and other fruits early on (after first 4 days) to help with constipation and to introduce good eating habits for later on.
just wondered does any one have any tips or views on this?? xx
