Question

Health visitor has said to keep baby on “from birth” milk until 1 year old because it’s better for her.....she’s 3 months now and you can buy 6months age milk etc ?? What are you all doing? Also going to try a few plain solids from 4 months because she seems so hungry all the time. She’s on 6oz and had about 7/bottles a day

Answer

My son eats 6oz every 2.5 - 3 hrs. We won't start solids until 6 months and Homo milk transition will be between 9months - 1 year for us.

Answer

We are keeping on breastmilk til 6 months at least that’s the plan. I’ve read a few places that their tummies are better at digesting at 6 months. But we aren’t completely against starting around 4 or 5 I’m just letting her lead the way

Answer

From what I understand the 6 month+ milk or follow on milk is a marketing thing and most professionals say it’s completely unnecessary and just to stick to the from birth milk. 
With weaning, it’s more a case of getting baby used to different textures and flavours which can take awhile. Milk is much more calorific and should be the primary source of nutrition until baby is one year old. Professionals recommend that babies aren’t usually ready for solids until they’re 6 months - a combination of tummies not being ready for it and they should be able to hold their head up well and sit (supported well can be ok). This is so that they don’t choke when feeding. Some people will wean from 4 months as it was common in the past but it isn’t the current recommendation.

Answer

My daughter 4 months and has 180ml six times a day
