Weaning
Started weaning my son today, he was 6months on Friday. I tried broccoli blended & a piece of broccoli- he had a few mouthfuls and it seemed positive that he liked it but he did gag a couple of times then projectile vomitted, I’m assuming this is because his stomach is still sensitive etc, he wanted more afterwards so had 2 more little mouthfuls but then I called it a day. Has anyone else experienced this?

My little man is on his first week, he projectile vommed after gagging.
I'm finding it pretty daunting, how have you found your first day?
Broccoli is a really high fiber food and can be difficult to digest. Here are a couple easy to digest good first foods: baby cereal you can get it at most grocery stores, mashed bananas, cooked and blended carrots, mashed potatoes, yogurt, mashed green beans
Stewed apple or pears are a great start or sweet potato
Courgettes is very easy to digest and we've started this!
It's probably just the gagging that made him sick rather than the broccoli. This happened with my first quite a lot if she was gagging. Try not to worry
Hey, I steamed and blended some and then offered some sticks that are more for holding and coordinating than eating but might make to the mouth.
I do a mix of blended and BLW and sort of my own thing x

Bath after a c section? When can I have one?
I am very much a bath girly and am starting to really miss having a nice warm soak.
A midwife in the hospital told me that I should wait 6-8 weeks for a bath. Is this true? Can a bath without soaps/ bubble bath be had before this? I have been showering daily, avoiding getting shampoo and shower gel on my incision.
I am 4 and a half weeks post C section.
Thanks for any advice xx

All he does is moan and moan and moan from the minute he wakes up till he goes to bed.

Feeding
My 4 week old tends to have an oz or so more than "advised" so normally have 5 to 6oz but has only eaten 3oz in his night feed tonight is that okay?
He is also extremely fussy and upset during his feeds at the moment and just tends to cry or scream alot, is this normal x

No sleep routine
My 8 week old has no real routine. His dad and I split the night and take a shift each in different rooms and we’re really just muddling through responding to however he is that day/night. I know every baby is different but when roughly should we start a routine and what should it look like?

Speech
My boy is going to be 2 in less than 2 weeks now & still barely saying many words he says mama, dada, nana, go, no, makes noises of a duck & he has recently started saying mummy & okay but i feel that he is behind. Is there recommendations on what I can do to improve this? Does it seem like he is behind?
