Isn’t it a little early for weaning? Just curious as mines 12th July and not even thinking about it yet. X

Hey, usual advice if considering early weaning is puréed vedges and porridge etc. with anything you trying usually it should “single taste” for a few days to exclude allergies and milk should remain babies main source of nutrition up until 12 month ( definitely shouldn’t reduce amount before 6 months) if starting to refuse bottles then definitely stop whatever you are offering. I would also suggest to communicate with HV, health professionals.

Baby rice has absolutely 0 nutritional value, it crippled my little boy too, but he loves purées also if you are determined with baby rice don’t make it how it says on the packet make it super watery but still able to feed off a spoon I found that helped xx

Vegetable purées first x

My son is on lactose-free milk, and we can’t give him baby rice when we start weaning as it says ‘may contain milk’ so may be that upsetting him! Think veg puree is a good place to start 😌

@Samantha don’t think that’s what Amy was asking!

Thanks guys, my son is 5 months old and showing all the signs he is ready so I’m willing to give it a go :)
