Weaning help!

[Vick97]

I’m a first time mum and can’t get my head around weaning, my health visitor say they do baby led weaning now so I have offered my 6 month old veg to start with soft but anything he has he just throws up except from purée stuff I keep trying with the baby led weaning but he’s not interested and when he does put it in his mouth the lumps of food always make him throw up each time, when do people give babies there food aswell so I was trying it half and hour to an hour after his bottle as people have told me to do but he dosent seem interested im presuming he’s full? I looked on the nhs website and it’s saying before a milk feed so im going to follow this? Just asking as I see everyone give after a milk feed and I know little ones only have a few spoonfuls a day at 6 months but when he’s 7 months do I start giving breakfast then 8-9 months start giving him lunch then when he’s 10 months dinner so by 10 months be on 3 meals a day is this correct just feel so overwhelmed like I have no idea what im doing any help and advice will be much appreciated thankyou🥰

Baby is only 6 months, so there's no hurry. It will be a few months before they take anything like a meal, so small amounts is fine.
We loved baby led weaning, as it meant I wasn't tied to the spoon and blender. Buy a plastic sheet or a shower curtain at Poundland and put it under the high chair to make clean-up easier.
Start simple, and offer the same sort of food multiple times- it takes time for them to 'like' things. Cooked carrot batons were our first things. We also bought peanut puffs (like unsalted wotsits covered in peanut powder) in the international food aisle for early but exposure (shown to reduce incidence of severe allergy). Bread soldiers with a little butter or peanut butter, cooked pasta tubes, boiled potatoes. Try to avoid sweet stuff at the start, as they often favour those

You don't have to just do one thing, a mix of spoon-fed puree and BLW is absolutely fine.

Mine was on 3 meals a day at 10mo but they're all different! You'll learn as you go.

Don't be afraid of meat!
