When do you bf babies stop wanting milk and wanting solids instead? ------------- http://lilypie.com" rel="nofollow">   [/url] Angel June 2012 |

DD still prefers me to food.... She didnt really eat much until 8/9 months and even then still wasnt much. I just go with the flow as to when she eats/feeds, some days she wants lots of BF, some days she doesnt. Food until one is just fun. -------------

DD loves her food she's very enthusiastic when it comes to solids. She's not as interested in me during the day when we are out she's too distracted.
I want her to wean herself rather than wean her myself. ------------- http://lilypie.com" rel="nofollow"> [/url] Angel June 2012 |

I don't know if Jacob's demand fed or not... he got into the habit of having a feed after his sleeps, and never asks for one othewise, so you could say either  But anyway, he's pretty much cut out his day feeds now, I offer them but he'll have a suck or two and turn his nose up. He still has a good feed first thing and before bed.-------------

I do a similar pattern with Catherine she has her milk feeds after her sleeps and solids around the same time I have my meals.
She's such a grazer she'll suck for a bit then stop I go to put my boob away and she wants more. Her first feed in the morning is a big feed especially if she's slept thru the night and I'm rather full. Off to go have dinner with my dinning companion. ------------- http://lilypie.com" rel="nofollow"> [/url] Angel June 2012 |

Hopes are you still giving Jacob puree/mash or is he on finger foods? ------------- http://lilypie.com" rel="nofollow"> [/url] Angel June 2012 |

You switch them to solid & then boob around 9-10 months.
Can't say I've had them prefer solids over boob, they've wanted both. ------------- Kel http://lilypie.com">

DS still prefers boob over solids, he's a grazer when it comes to food, he'll pick and have bites all day long. And is BFing anywhere from 6-12 times in 24 hours. -------------
