HI there
would like to seek from experienced BF mommies. My gal now is 7mths and 3 weeks. She has been taking solids 3meals a day. On top of that, i am still nursing her 5-6 times. I'm wondering when exactly or do we ever drop any nursing session as they grow? I am not ready to wean her, jus asking for my knowledge so that i dont overfeed. Cos my mom and some other mommies kept telling me some of the solids meals will be replacing the BF session and that i shud only feed my gal milk 3x a day! As i'm nursing her via direct latch, i have no idea how much she's taking. I cant nurse her base on demand, becos at this age, she's so curious about her surroundings and hardly make noise for her milk UNTIL i take her aside to nurse her. If i dont, she'll jus skip the session and seems to be fine, but when i offer, she'll take it too (a few mins). So i constantly have to remind myself around 3-4hours to offer her my breast. Dunno if i'm doing it right.
Pls help!
