Just a bit of help needed please! DD is 20 weeks now, she is ebf. Yes I am aware 6 months is the right time to wean. However everyone seems to have a different opinion on weaning so I'm very confused!
I don't think she is quite ready for weaning yet, however everybody else is constantly saying how she's 'definitely' ready because she's showing an interest when we're eating. The HV advised the other day that watching you eat isn't a sign as they watch us do most things!! Felt pressure to try solids a few weeks early, so she had fruit purée yesterday and took it fairly well. But what about BLW?!
Can she have a bit of purée, until giving her finger foods at 6months? Can you combine purées and then BLW? How much purée do I give her (if I continue to give purées) and what do I do about the breastfeeds, do they stay the same, as she's feeding on demand? It's a mine field. Any advice would be good
