Theo Starts Baby Rice

The past four days I have noticed Theo not being completely filled with just bottle milk. There's only so many times you can up the amount of milk a baby has unless you fancy using custom made litres bottles

After much debate over rusks or baby rice I decided baby rice would be best as rusks contain higher sugar levels and the last thing I want is a super excited Theo just before bedtime.

The reason I prefer to give Theo his milk/rice combo just before bedtime is so he's nice and full up which will help towards a peaceful sleep.

Each baby varies but I decided to start small at first for a few nights gradually getting bigger. Rice (although 90% liquid) is a different texture and could have upset his stomach so it's always better to start of with smaller doses when trying or starting new things.

Theo now loves his rice and is now managing 6oz of milk directly followed by 2.4oz of baby rice. He has this milk/rice combo once as the last feed before sleep.
