Weaning
What age did you guys give your babies their first solid food? And what did you give them? My little one is only 11 weeks so it won’t be for a while but when I googled it, it said never to give your baby solids if they are under 6 months as this can cause allergies? I’ve heard of people doing it at 4 months so just want to be safe x

@Lucy You’d be better taking advice from someone trained in nutrition and weaning than a GP

@Lucy You don’t see the damage early y can do until later in life

Waiting until 6 months is usually best because it gives the baby’s digestive system time to mature and won’t cause any long time damage. It’s true every baby’s body’s grow at different times but there is a 100% guarantee their digestive system will be matured at 6 months.

@Lucy And I say this as someone who has done the training and am qualified 🤷🏻♀️
