Weaning

they recommend that your baby dosent wean until 6 months and then after that food until 1 is only for fun, milk is the most important thing but saying this my baby is almost 6 months old and been having porridge before bed since 5 months, only little taste here and there and been working it up, he tells me when he is full and has milk afterwards also fully breastfed and fed when wanted x

I borrowed a friends book for my eldest called how to wean your baby. I didn't follow it exactly but it gave some good tips so I'd recommend it x

If you’re unsure, ring your health visitor. They’ll be able to advise you on everything. But your LO will give you all the signs when she’s ready, had enough etc x

Please only start weaning when they can sit upright pretty well on their own, hold their head straight without wobbling and wont slouch in the highchair at all, this is important to prevent choking. They need to be able to bring things to their mouths easily, and also not reflexively push things out with their tongue but be able to swallow.
