Hi everyone.
My LO is still a bit young to be weaned, but I'm reading up on it now so I at least have an idea of what I'm doing!
So I plan to start introducing food at lunchtime each day to start with after offering some milk first.
These first few steps Im Ok with. What I have no idea about is when do you replace a bottle with food entirely?
Reading up, a lot of websites say that you offer the bottle (usual amount that baby takes) with every meal. Is this right? Is it offered before or after food? I can't see when I should stop a bottle completely. Should I gradually reduced the amount of milk offered?
Anyone have any tips in general for weaning?
Thanks in advance.
