We have already faced the fact that feeding Baby A is a complicated thing. It doesn’t get easier when feeding solids either. There are just so many things to think about, such as:
- How often should I feed him?
- How much solid food should he eat?
- How much milk does he still need to have?
- Should he have dessert straight after his main meal?
- What can he drink apart from milk?
The latter was especially important for us the other day. He was fed some savoury rice (which he likes….yes that’s right, something he actually enjoys!) and then immediately given a fruit puree dessert. Maybe he was full, or maybe he just didn’t like the taste, but he threw up all of his dessert…and all of his rice as well.
Sigh. Even with solids he’s not happy.
So….how do you go about feeding a baby? Well…I’ve mentioned our milk feeding problems several times, but surprisingly we’ve had better luck with solids. Tune in to part 2 for more….
