My daughter is about to turn 4 months and in a a couple months I am going to start the weaning process. But I am so nervous for it. I know it should be a fun time, but she is my first and I am terrified of her choking or reacting to something. I also have minimal support so am doing this alone!
So just some questions to make the process clearer in my head so I can approach it with a bit more confidence! Where do you start with weaning - what foods, texture and how often? Do you still feed milk as normal and at what stage in the weaning process will milk stop?
At what stages do you change textures? How long does weaning last and when do they start on normal food like grown ups? Or just any helpful advice ...
I am just completely clueless when it comes to this, and despite reading up on it still don't have a clear picture in my head of where to start. I understand anxiety is probably taking over on this one, but feel advice from people who have been through the process is more helpful than an NHS booklet on what you 'should do'
Thanks
