DD2 is 18 and a half weeks and keeps trying to eat food, watches us eat, mimics chewing, has good hand to eye co-ordination, can hold herself up well, has more than doubled her birth weight. She's currently EBF and feeds every two hours during the day but sleeps through the night. Do I follow guidelines and try to hold out another 8 weeks or should I try a bit of puree along with a milk feed? DD1 started weaning at 17 weeks as she was so big, my HV at the time agreed it was the right time for her and suggested two meals a day due to her size but I eased her in with 1 to start with.
