hi all, ive been weaning ava for a few weeks now, were on breakfast and lunch now, where do i go from here, do i introduce dinner or up portion sizes for the two meals she is having. i also need some inspiration for some new foods to give her so far ive given

pears
butternut squash
sweet potato
carrot
parsnip
toast fingers
baby porridge

thanks x

i would go to 3 meals a day. i was late dong that with Cerys cos i didnt realise until my HV told me

What about smashed avocado mixed with banana, carrots ,cauli, brocoli, weetabix, ready brek, grated cheese, beans, potatoes, raspberries, baby pasta.

Obviously do combo's of veg and give her a bit more solid rather than mush now x

I'd definitely recommend getting one of Annabel Karmel's meal planner books. It's great for ideas and you don't have to follow the plans. It's also good for advice as to which things to introduce at what ages. x

I'll second the Annabel Karmel Books, they are really good for ideas!

oh yes, i forgot about her very good book, it explains what nutrients are in what food etc

i forgot her too, ive looked on her website and there's loads of free recipes, most use her products which i wouldnt buy but good for inspiration. thanks x

Ive been weaning alfie for about 4 or 5 weeks now and hes on 3 meals a day. He cutting down on his milk himself and now only drinks 4 bottles of 7oz of milk a day. He usually get porridge with fruit mixed in for brekkie, a petit filous yoghurt for his dinner and half a jar of baby food for tea. Eventually im going to try cutting out his bottle at 4.30 and just offer him his tea and a desert and then give him a big 9oz bottle before bed.
