Thanks for your advise.
On the 1st and 2nd day we only give one small spoon amt of cereal. So today i asked my mil to increase to 2 spoons but still diluted type. Thinking to maintained this way till weekend, then might start to reduce the milk amt to make it more sticky type.</font>

Felicia, I started giving liquidy porridge, but now thickening more. I noticedm y boy having no problems swollowing, so decreased the milk amount. I just introduced porridge on Saturday.
We still give milk every 3 hours but give porridge too, between 11am to 1pm, and again between 430pm to 630pm, depending on when the last milk feed was, and the nap times.
On saturday, we gave 1/2 cube porridge and 10ml milk twice.
On Sunday, it was 1 cube porridge and 15ml milk
Yesterday, it was 1.5 cubes porridge and 20ml milk.
Today and tomorrow is 2 cubes porridge and 20ml milk.
Then from tomorrow onwards, maintain 2 cubes porridge and 20ml milk, then add 1/2 cube potato with 5ml milk. Then slowly increase amount of potato over the days to 1 cube. So it is 2 cubes porridge, 1 cube potato. Then on WEdnesday, will give pumpkin instead of potato but still continue to give porridge.
I plan to give root veg first, then fruit. cos fruit is sweet.. in case bb reject root veg.

Just to add, important is to monitor bowel changes, if any. If constipated, or stools are hard, then give water or more BM if you are still giving BM. At the moment, I'm not giving water yet, cos my bb is not constipated. Instead, I keep up with BM. Erm, I feed my boy on demand, but he self regulates to 150ml to 200ml every 3 hours, even with the porridge. Only at 7 months (after we confirm no allergy through important food groups), we will substitute food for milk. Then milk should drop to 500ml to 750ml/24 hours. and give 3 semi-solid meals per day.

shycloud,
if u need to freeze solid food.. but tat will mean u also have to sterilise. so still not so advisable.
cactus,
yr assumption is bb milk intake will decrease when solid food increase. however, my colleague said her boy at 1 year old can take up to 200-250ml milk, and it will increase. therefore she has to give FM at tat point.
for the beginning 1st and 2nd mth of solid food, bb can't take much food yet so they won't get much from solid food. and BM or FM is still suppose to be main food while solid food are just 'supplements' or 'desserts' and not meant to replace milk.

Felicia,
After i feed for 2-3 days, i ored able to decrease the milk amt to make the cereal more thick. maybe u can try tat if yr bb is ready.
after u let yr bb take cereal for 1-2 weeks, u can start puree liao. once yr bb is able to take cereal well without dripping much out, can take around 70% in, u can try puree.

shycloud,
ur ger is it using Avent teats? If yes, u can get the 3mths+ variable for thicker liquids one..There are 3 types of flow we can control, level 1,II and III. We started on level 1 lor, then find that after 4wks, she like sucking abit hard, so switch to level 2 lor..I find the teats bery good lor...then some of the BR still hv abit of lumps, then we will turn to level III when towards the last bit of milk...
ioio,
got meh?hehe..Onli the thermos n the bibs now wor..keke...the bibs really good quality lor, i hv 3pc and not enough cos my ger uses 2-3bibs aday so wan to get more lor..
Sharon,

Felicia,
as for porridge hor, i feel it depends on bbs lor..if they swallow well and cereal can't really fill them up, then its time for porridge liao.. =)..
I tried out something new last wkend..I use a pc of pork and potato and boil the soup, then add the rice, then pour in some of the bottled Healthy times sweet potato , then add brocoli into her porridge, she likes lor =)...

What most people do is to give cereal in the morning as breakfast, porridge as lunch or dinner. in btw with veg and fruit puree.
For those who start at 6mths, according to KKH guide is to start with only 1 meal per day. Around 7mths can increase to 2 meals. 8mths/9mths can increase to 3meals.
