I feel like im feeding more and more each day, he won't open his mouth for any solids, we're lucky if he has a lick of something. And I know milk is their main source until their 1 but we're on an average of 0 food a day, how am I supposed to try and wean down feeds when hes having no food

Solids have been a bit of a nightmare here for us too with our EBF baby. He will usually eat a decent amount for evening meal but every other time he barely eats anything. More interested in playing with the spoons tbh

Not often, probs around 4-5 times or so in a day and wakes up for 1 tiny feed

On a good day about 8 times, on a bad day about 14 🥴🥴. It's a domino effect, if they drink so much milk, they're not hungry for solids. I've stopped EBF on demand and now feed him every 4 hours and when I manage this he eats his solids so much better.

2 meals a day and feeds on the boob every 2 hours during the day! My husband gives her porridge for breakfast and she will eat more if I don’t feed her straight away when she gets up. I feed her after she has her breakfast. With dinner she doesn’t eat lots, but it has taken us a looooong time to get her to eat with us. Persistence is key!

My boy is on 3 meals a day. I BF when he wakes from sleep/nap then give a meal about 1hr -1.5hr later then feed before bed. He usually wakes in the night for 2 feeds too!
We’ve got the opposite though as my son (previously a milk monster!) loves food and it’s hard getting milk into him!
