Should I start weaning?

[LaineyG]

Hello Everyone!

My question is as the subject says!

1. Mhairi is now 20 weeks old.

2. Her hand-eye co-ordination has improved tonnes over the past few weeks.

3. She is fascinated by anything we eat/drink and reaches out for it.

4. She sleeps through till from 7 to 7 with a dreamfeed at 10pm.

5. She's never really been a big eater, and can sometimes only take 2 oz every 4 hours, or guzzle 7oz every 4 hours.

So should I or shouldn't I?

I would wait because although she is interested in your food she doesn't seem like she needs it yet because she is sleeping through the night. If you start weaning her now she may drop her milk feeds which you don't really want her to do seeing as she isn't taking much already.

Gemma's right...shes sleeping well and not constantly looking for more milk straight after a feed then you can wait a bit longer

lil miss is fascinated by things I put in my mouth too..I think they are just interested in us...

Thanks girls!

It's all so confusing when she only shows some of the signs!
