I don't have more LGRS!
When I was making her "milk" today, I noticed that I didn't had the amount of LGRS I thought I had...
Any suggestions?
I'm in the 1st day giving 50% LGRS / 50% Chri's. Her "milk" will last till tomorrow.
Also I frozen a little bit of the milk that was made in excess, and I froze it, hopefully to serve in the 3rd day 50% LGRS / 50% Chri's (Only if it's ok to be frozen and served).
Still, there's the 3 days serving 75% LGRS / 25% Chri's missing, and the 100%LGRS.
Would it be okay to give her another recipe, or should I make LGRS again, but less, to cover for her to adapt?

Yes its okay froze then thawed in the refrigerator...just make sure to give it a good mixing up when its unfrozen, and I would make up more LGRS just smaller amount for now

we can bump up her schedule as long as she is eating well on the LGRS, fruits and veggies...she is old enough to actually be weaned but because of the prior I thought it best to move slowly but if she is handling it well...just make sure to grab a nice avacado for those extra fats...

Okay, so in adittion to the LGRS, I should only had avocado?
Which fruits/veggies you consider good for me to give her at this moment?

melons, blue berries, papaya, mango are great

veggies, bok choy is good calcium, watch the amount of corn you feed as its high in phos., green peppers, green beans, peas, etc I would justnot feed "the spices" onions, garlic etc

you can continue to add the yogurt also just remember, everything in moderation, you want her getting most of the staple (LGRS) but with the added to benefits of the avacado and the yogurt probiotic... Im not sure how big a batch of LGRS is but with what I feed it makes a blender full so to that I add in 1/2 and avacado and about 1/2 a cup of activia (probiotic yogurt)

So I have to serve it cold, right? For the yogurt not to get sour.
She eats a small plate of LGRS, I'm going to add tomorrow the avocado and the yogurt probiotic :)
Supposedly I have to blend it all in into one mixture?
Also, how do I teach her how to drink from the water bottle? I'm trying, but she doesn't get it /:

she should catch onto the water bottle...make sure its low enough in the cage she can get to it when she is eating... and yes, I would blend the avacado in... the yogurt juice if frozen will lose some of it good properties so you can just but a dab on top of her food

I still can't make her drink from the water bottle... So I use a very little bowl with water, she almost never goes there.
Supposely shouldn't she need to drink some?

Unless she is eating a god deal of fruits and veggies, yes. If she is taking in f/v, shes getting her fluid intake from them.
