A try at solids....

[dannii]

This is a little hard to explain the question i need answered but...
Indy has been breastfed and is now 4 months old so i tried her on some rice cereal.. as she has been showing alot of interest in everyones food.

She wasnt too keen on it, so then DF tried her on a thing of baby food 4+ months on the bottle was pumpkin and beef and something else .. anyways she had a bit of that and seem to like it.. but gave up on it.
It didnt have the reaction i thought she would give but still ate most of what we offered. But i just had to eliminate that it could be a problem (wanting solids)

She didnt appear she was as interested as i thought , so now.. can i just not give it to her again or have i stuffed up with the feeding thing.. i remember someone talking about it changing the PH level of their gut
can u just stop? or will she end up just as hungry now that she has had solids?
hmm i hope u can understand what im talking about.

i guess im just worried that now shes had a taste at solids, breastmilk may not be enough. and can i still wait and give her another try at 5 or 6 months.

JUst because you attempted solids certainly does NOT mean you have to continue with it at all. If bub really wasn't too keen in the solids just wait till 6 months! No harm done!;)

I agree with Oscar's mum, don't stress yourself about it lovey, give it another try in a couple of months. :thumbsup:

Oh thanks oscar's mum: for understanding my confusing post and for the reassurance!!
Its weird that i cant remember this stuff.. it feels like im a first time mum again :laughing: its been so long and i dont rmemeber all these dramas the first time round.
Or maybe i know that bubhub has my back now :thumbsup:

and to you the_queen, i will try again in a couple months. i dont think she is truely ready.

I thought she was showing signs of wanting solids, but i think i was wrong.. how did other people know when their bubs were ready??
thanks again
