Anyone elses baby not liking starting weaning?

My little boy seems to not be taking to it. absolutely hates purees, and not interested in food. I’ve been trying everyday for 2 weeks and everyday it stresses him out, he hates the high chair too. I was so excited for this new journey of weaning but it’s not going to plan

I've found that my boy hates puree, slightly better with mashed but he prefers actual pieces of food

I'd say to have a break for a bit, even if he's showing the signs of being ready if he's getting stressed it's not worth the upset, he's got plenty of time to eat! Have a few days or even a week off and then try again, try a different food group, blw/ mashed/crispy rusk things, switch it up to something completely different when you restart and maybe he'll take to it better then x

Don’t stress yourself out over it. If you think they aren’t bothered or not interested then as Kryssi said, have a break. I got so worked up with my first when we started, we just took a break for a couple weeks and tried again x

Yeah take a break and as hard as it is when you start back try relax as much as possible and stop if they're getting stressed. Maybe try a mix of textures and just let them play. I tend to load a spoon and then let my little one take it to his mouth himself (I think 75% ends up on his hands and face) but he enjoys it and is eating more and more.

My boys loves the food , however I’m thinking to stop weaning him as he suffers with constipation 🥲
