Question
I have been breastfeeding my 9 month old baby. But since introducing solid food to her, I have not been feeding her as much. I think my milk supply is getting very little as I am feeding her maybe every 5 hours or so. If I start feeding her milk more frequently, will my milk supply increase again? My baby does not ask for milk. Is it because I am feeding her too much solid food & she is still full?
Answer
This is the time that your child should now move on to solid foods and the breast feeding should be gradually weaned off. Read the article on Weaning on www.pediatriconcall.com for further details: http://www.pediatriconcall.com/forpatients/DietandDisease/weaning.asp Back to All Questions
