Hello!
My son is 5 months old. I felt that all the signs were there that he was ready for weaning.
So it has been 5 days now that he's been having baby porridge in the morning. He's responded really well and loves the porridge! I was worried about going from the closeness of bottle feeding to then introducing a spoon but it didn't seem to phase him at all.
I'm wondering about introducing a lunchtime/afternoon purée of Apple. Am I rushing though? Should I leave it a while longer on the porridge in the morning with milk throughout the rest of the day?
When I do move on to purée apple, pears, carrots, sweet potato ect (gradually I know)- I'm going to purée then freeze in cube trays. A few quick questions- how long can they be kept in the freezer before needing to be thrown out? Should I leave in the pot/in a bowl to defrost then heat through in a saucepan?
Thank you in advance! Xxx
