My sil is currently weaning her 15 wk LO, I also have a 15 wk LO but will be waiting to the 26 wk Mark as I have digestive problems and would try every thing in my power to ensure my LO doesn't.
Our other sil has 3 kids which were all weaned around 16 wks and all 3 have asthma,numerous inhalers, hay fever and coughs/colds every month or so regardless of the weather. I find it really hard to see why my sil (with the 15 wk old) is contuning to wean at such an early age when the evidence against it is plain to see, though I know its none of my business so will keep my mouth shut obviously.
Just wondering is it just a coincidence my nieces and nephew have these ailments or i wonder is it specifically from early weaning. Have any of u encountered Children (either your own or others) with allergies/ailments that you think were caused by early weaning?
I'm interested to see does real life experiences actually back up the research.
