Regardless of what (and how) you are feeding your baby, the first year (weaning age till 1yr) is all about playing with food, not so much eating the food. Unless there is a real medical reason why you baby needs food, in which case you would already be speaking to a consultant.

Is there a reason you are using abidec? They are only of use to babies who have a need for them (pre term, ill health etc). They are more trouble than they are worth and I found them a nightmare to give (pre term baby). A healthy full term baby won't need them if they are getting lots of milk.

On Thursday I took LO to be weighed and the HV said that because he is BF and not FF, he would need supplements. I know that this is probably tosh, but I really don't want to risk stunting his growth etc - I suppose I am easy prey to all that salesman jazz iykwim?!
