Thank you x

Agree with Neesha dont over think.

Start with iron rich vegetables.

Ellas kitchen have weekly weaning guides you can download if you want to take the guesswork out of it 😊

How to Wean Your Baby by Charlotte Stirling-Reed is a great book which steps you through the first few weeks with recipes for afterwards. It suggests a combination of purees and BLW. You may be able to find a copy on FB marketplace or similar.
She also posts lots of info online and on FB/insta so worth following. Here's a few links to read:
