My LO is just under 6m and I started weaning (just a bit of baby rice) at 4.5. She's built up very slowly to 1 or 2 meals of pureed veg mixed with (breast or formula) milk.
Went to the HV and have been advised to start bringing protein in - LO's weight gain is a bit slow so she is steadily dropping on the centile chart so although she's not yet underweight she seems to need more. They recommended chicken or fish.
So now I have a haddock fillet in front of me.... whats the best way to prepare it? Oven bake (with ours) then puree it with milk like I do with her veg? Or should mashing it with a fork be OK? Or is it soft enough to just pop it in front of her and let her take it herself? I'll be very careful that it doesn't have bones.
I should have thought about this earlier in the day!!
Thanks!
