Weaning

Anyone else struggling to get their baby to eat actual food/purees? My LG is almost 8 months old, and I'm really struggling to get her to eat consistently. She still breastfeeds fine, but when it comes to weaning, she doesn't want to know most of the time. Any tips to help this? I go back to work in February, and obviously, she will need to eat whilst I'm working.

No advice but my little one is 7 months and in the exact same position. No interest in food whatsoever but breastfeeding fine.

A few other people are going thru this: see this post from today for comfort 🩷 https://www.peanut-app.io/share/pE1nY5xI0Ob

Yes can very much relate to this. I have friends that say things picked up at 9-10 months so trying to stay as relaxed as possible about it but it’s not easy!

When I first started introducing food to my LB at around 4-5 months, I added breast milk in my homemade purée. Maybe try that first and once she’s comfortable with purée try mashed up food with a bit of breast milk and then finger size food with no breast milk?

Thank you all. It is so overwhelming! I'm glad I'm not the only one, I keep thinking I'm doing something wrong. I'll try adding breastmilk, done that previously in her porridge and she had no interest but I'll try again
