Hi all
I have just been to see my MHCN to have DS weighed & measured etc.
DS is still fully BF and I had a bit of chat to her about weaning as I have to go back to work in January.

He is currently on 4 BF a day (7am, 11am, 3.30pm, 7pm) and eating solids really well. I am happy to keep the 7am and 7pm for now but want to drop the 11 & 3 in the next month.

I was told to replace the feeds (over a couple of weeks) with just water from a sippy cup and offer a small snack.

I assumed that I would be replacing the feeds with formula prior to 12 mths and then cows milk at 12 months but was told that wasn't necessary as he is a good eater.

Even if I was dropping all 4 feeds by 12 months she still said didn't have to give milk if he was eating really well. Thoughts anyone??
