My little boy has just started weaning- we're on Day 10. He is exactly 6months old today.
We've started slowly with just carrots, potato, sweet potato and apples (all smooth purées) and he enjoyed toast fingers a few days ago.
However, he's just started to refuse to go down to sleep at night, lots of night-wakings and insecurity. Stomach cramps/ arching his back etc. Is this a developmental side-effect of a new 'thing' in his life or is he struggling to digest the food? I don't know what to do for the best: stop for a few weeks or push through. He does also have a bit of a cough/ cold that he caught from his brother.
We have a hospital appt in two weeks where he needs to be able to eat a spoonful of peanut butter for a controlled allergy test so I want to carry on with weaning so I can still attend that important appt (but obviously not at the expense of his immediate health)...
