Changing order of milk and solids

[MantaRay]

The answer is that it depends who you ask. In dietician and child health circles there are two schools of thought on this. The most common answer is that about 8 - 9 months the food should come first, but there is also good information around to support 12 months being a better age. Truly I think the right answer is whatever works best for you and your LO. Follow the lead of your DS and your instinct and you can't go too wrong!

Thanks everyone - its good to know others are waiting until 1 year to swap feeds. We will continue with bottle first until DS decides otherwise In the meantime I am still giving him dinner first then a bottle at 6:30, and it seems to be working ok...
