Dd is 19 weeks (I think) and very alert etc for her age. She's had good head control for ages and is trying to sit up. She also seems very interested in food and tries to swipe at our plates. Now, I used to scoff at people saying this and think well yes, babies swipe at everything - but it really is just food with her!
With ds we did blw and he steadily lost weight and dropped down the charts while we stupidly stuck to our guns about not spoon feeding him. He finally got the hang of it at about 10 months... so the whole spoon feeding thing is a new world for us!
She's breastfed frequently and generally a good sleeper at night, but is there any reason we can't introduce say mashed carrot?
