how do you increase number of 'meals' with blw?

I know Holly isn't ready to increase just yet cos she's only been going with blw for 4 days. At the moment she has tea with us, and has taken to it like a duck to water judging by the nappies! How did you start to increase the number of 'meals' your lo had and what timescale did you go with?

I started straight away on 3 meals a day more for a routine!! How's it going? Xx

It's amazing. Yesterday (day 4) Holly picked up a cheese muffin in both hands and demolished it, she then had mine too! She is swallowing loads more than we thought she would. Was worried about overloading her tummy if we let her try more often in the day, will she just take less milk? So pleased we waited to start blw cos it's fantastic to see in action.

I started with lunch and tea and after a few weeks did breakfast too. He's only just started eating stuff now though and hasn't dropped any milk feeds yet. BLW is such good fun!
