I thought the above was true. DS is 7 months and is having mainly finger foods and mainly sucks on whatever i give him as opposed to actually eating very much, he won't open his mouth to a spoon unless he's holding it and then it ends up in his hair rather than is his mouth. I've not worried about this as I thought it was all about first tastes at this age and that his main nourishment came from milk?
Anyway, took DS to be weighed today and he's put on weight from last time but has dropped from 91st to 75th percentile. HV said that his main nourishment should be from food now and not milk and that I should be giving him more to eat.
I'm worried now that I've been doing it all wrong?
