A member asked:

I started feeding my 6 months baby. shall i reduce the amount of milk intake now that shes feeding? how many times shall i feed her per day

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Let baby sort it out: The addition of solids to the diet is not meant to displace the nutrition of breast milk or formula. It is a way to teach a kid to transition to a new feeding source.The value is in learning to handle textures and swallow a different type of feed.Offer your pastey food at the beginning of the feed and when baby has had a reasonable training session, follow with the milk.She'll sort it out.
