Hello, I have two boys ages 6 and 1 1/2 years old that I nursed/bottle fed with breast milk until a year even though I worked full-time. What was most helpful was to be consistent with the times I gave food vs. the times I gave a bottle. I introduced cereal in the morning before the bottle so that the bottle did not make them too full to eat and then again at dinner time. Also, by following your doctor's recommendations by introducing rice cereal and/or other cereals, it was easier to get them to eat the solids. But I have to tell you, my second one did NOT like the rice cereal, it was not until oatmeal that he would actually eat the food. Also, I used my milk to make the cereal, not formula so the tastes were not too different for them. Hope this helps! And good luck!
