Breastfeeding - Weaning Process

i wonder if your baby is getting enough solids. my baby is only 11 mos, and eats a lot of solid foods. maybe you can add some variety to the congee. we first make a fish soup base, then use that soup base to make the congee. or we add other stuff ie. carrots and meat. i think after 12 months, most of the baby's nutrition comes from solids (at least that's how they preach it in the states).

i'm still breastfeeding the night feeds and doing formula during the day. i switched to half and half bc i am currently pregnant again and was waaaaay too exhausted to keep it up full time and take care of my baby. i'm keeping the option open to go back to exclusive BF after the baby is born.

another thing to keep in mind is how active your baby is. mine hasn't gained for 3 months, but she went from non-mobile to extremely mobile, so i'm not worried. you might want to talk to your doc or a nutritionist if your baby is losing weight.
