Hey ladies, I know others have faced a similar dilemma but I cant remember the outcome...

I have been merrily telling everyone how Eva is happy with milk at the mo so I am hoping to get to 6 months before we start solids then over the last couple of days she has started taking longer at feeds and last night was back to waking many times hungry. This morning she has been on every 2 hours too... :?
She does watch us eating but not to the extent that I have felt she wants some too....she is 5 months this weekend and I was really hoping to get nearer to 6 before we started trying solids but if she is waking because she is hungry I dont want to lose the somewhat fragile routine we have found either aarggghhhhh! what to do?? :think:

Those who hung on till 6 months did you find the same thing? Did it pass after a few days? :pray:
 
i'm still holding off despite the signs all being there. but then connor's never slept well at night (until this week but that's a different thread)... connor feeds every 1.5 / 2 hours but, again, he's done that for a long time. i don't mind the night and frequent feeds though; i just keep thinking that i'll miss them lots when he starts cutting down and food is just empty calories at this stage really... plus i've got enough on cleaning green poo off my carpets without adding food to the mix! :lol: :lol:

you know eva best hon - do what you feel is right for her :hug: :hug: :hug: :hug:
 
Yeah I remember you having a similar thing Midna....Eva certainly doesnt look starving lol :D I dont actually mind the night feeds either was just worried I might be ignoring a plea for foood!
Going to my Mums next week anyway so cant be bothered messing about weaning while we are away!
Thanks girls x
 
two words! growth spurt! def sounds like one to me! ky had a massive one around 5 months to.
 
Oh god dont tell me that! She is already growing out of things faster than I can put her in them!! Little porker lol :lol:
 
Oh dear....Eva will have to follow Seeds lead and go nekkid :lol:
