I'm Currently Feeling:  | Rusk??
Was wondering if anyone gives their baby a bit of rusk in their bed time bottle?
My Mum suggested I try it and also my MIL said it would do no harm?
I'm just confused, is it still ok to do that?
Noah normally sleeps 6ish hours then wakes for a feed and will then go back off for 2-3 hours which I thought is ok (although he was sleeping from 9ish - 7am at one point which was great!)
Just something both our parents mentioned about him sleeping all the way through. | | | | Status: Offline

I'm Currently Feeling:  | All health advice is that you do not add anyhting to your childs bottle.
He sounds like he is doing great without it, he is still very little and I would leave off any solids just yet. | | | | Status: Offline

I'm Currently Feeling:  | I really wouldn't add anything to the bottle. It is a potential choking hazard. If you want to give him a little off the spoon, then that really is your decision, but I would urge you seriously not to add anything to his milk. | | | | Status: Offline
