Weaning But i only want comments from those who relate, No critical comments thank you

The research into the negative impact of early weaning is really clear now; it can do lifelong damage but said research wasn't around 20 years ago, so as a young person yourself, you may well have had baby rice at 4 months but this is not good practice now. Please don't turn to the internet for medical advice for a CMPA baby. Get paediatrician approval for early weaning and follow their plan so you know you're all safe. If he is literally screaming in pain even after his diagnosis, you need to get him further medical help. I'm sorry it has been such a rough start to motherhood.

I don’t know anything about formula feeding as I only breastfed, but why can’t you give him an extra ounce if he wants it? Every 3 hours seems pretty normal, hell my son was on the boob a lot more than that and never had a bottle so I’ve never had any idea how many ounces he’s drank and just let him feed when he wanted. Can you not do that with formula fed babies??

I was told to feed mine when he's hungry, so long as he's tracking ok on his percentiles then I don't see the issue! Re weaning early, I did wean slightly early (5.5 months) with mine because he could sit upright and was showing huge interest in food, started with baby porridge (blended oats mixed with his formula) and very very slowly.

At five months old your baby can feed more often than three hours if he needs to, maybe try breaking the bottles down into less ounces more often so he's not constantly hungry or overfeeding. My baby is formula fed and she was eating what felt like constantly for a bit (called her the snacker) and then it normalized. What has the pediatrician said?
