Sorry for the long post! My dd is 6 months next week but we started weaning this week as she'd met all the milestones. Last week she had a bit of baby porridge which she chomped on a little before spitting it out and she had rusks a couple of times that she really went to town on. So this week we started with veg. I've been giving some chunks on her tray as well as doing a puree. Mon she had potato, first spoon she sort of took but second spoon made her gag (I know they need to learn what their gag reflex is) but it made her bring up her previous milk food. Tues we did broccoli, she screamed when it went in her mouth and wouldn't touch the bits on her tray. Today was cauliflower. She got the tiniest bit on her tongue before coughing, gagging and screaming. Again she wouldn't touch the stuff on her tray. Put a spoon and some toys on the tray and they all went straight in her mouth! 🙄 Has the potato traumatised her? Should I stop for now and try again at a later date??
