Crying whilst weaning

My little boy is 6 months and 2 weeks so should be weaning.
I initially tried for a week when he turned 6 months and he was getting very upset so after a week i stopped as it felt like he wasn’t ready.

I’ve tried him again today and he seems to be doing a little bit better with it in his mouth but I’m still worried he’s not ready.
He cries a little bit when the food is put in his mouth and doesn’t actively take the food off the spoon, I have to sort of scrape it on his gum, he doesn’t close his mouth round the spoon at all. I then have to wait for him to eventually either gag a lot before potentially swallowing some of it or spit/dribble it out after sort of holding it in his mouth for ages all whilst mildly crying.
He’s not interested at all in finger food and to be honest isn’t really showing any interest in food at all.

What shall I do?
Do I keep trying little bits each day and eventually he’ll start to want it or do I stop again. If I do stop how will I know he’s ready when he doesn’t seem to be showing any interest at all.

Tell me this isn't a normal convo between hubby and wife..

Please read before voting cause I'm mega pissed off!! We were having a convwrsation about ticktock which lead to his favourite person (a woman with an Of account & 2 kids under 30 apparently)

Me: well she's young she can eat what she likes and burn it off. When you hit 30, game over (from experience)
Him: not everyone restricts themselves like you
Me: I just don't eat that much
Him: well shes had two kids and still looking fine.. *smirk*
Me: 😒
Him: truth..
Me: wtf!! You can't say stuff like that with that smirk and not expect me to kick off..
Him: you're over reacting again..
Me: any woman would be annoyed..

And so the conversation turned into an argument about him being wrong and said he prefers younger looking women than his 34yr old wife who is a size 6 UK BTW

Are men just stupid or what?? When doesn't he realise that it's not okay to talk like this to people when he's obsessed with ticktock??

Meal ideas

What’s your baby’s favourite meal? I need new ideas

Again something I never thought my daughter would like

I gave her one because she kept staring at me eating. She's had 5 since. She's 10.5 months. My 3 yo refused to even eat the rice because it touched a chip.

Living in a flat with little ones

For those of you who live in a flat, do you use the communal garden as your 'garden' and if so what's your set up like? Just need some inspo🥰

Husband is a jerk

Tell me if this is ridiculous.

We took our son to the park this morning because I wanted to get out of the house. My husband is always starting at his computer, he woke up late (it’s a Saturday), I made breakfast, got my son up, changed his diaper, cleaned the kitchen.

We made plans with my sister in law to meet up an hour away to get our kids together. After we get home from the park, we have 25 minutes until we need to leave. I’m packing snacks, feeding our toddler, trying to get everything ready to go while my husband sits on his computer and makes himself a smoothie. I have to tell him to let his dog out and to pack the diaper bag. Mind you, I told him I needed to get my makeup on and pack up my lunch.

He doesn’t care he goes to the bathroom and gets himself ready.

I’m pissed. I’m tired of delegating and mothering. I said we just wouldn’t go. And he says he’s just going to go without me even though I’m the one who wants to get out and see people, packs things up and gets everyone ready.

Am I the asshole or is he?

BLW rice

Has anybody given rice yet? We are having a rice dish for tea and baby is just short of 9 months, which the solid starts app says from 9 months they can be served rice as it comes (cooked of course). How is everyone else serving it?
