I started feeding my baby at 4 months she’s currently having breakfast and lunch. She is 6 months on Tuesday. Shall i introduce her third meal then?

I think it's up to you, and a case of reading your baby's cues. Did you start weaning early for any particular reason or did you just feel she was ready? We started around six months and we're still only on one meal a few weeks later. I don't think there's a huge rush but you could try it and see how she takes to it?

We weaned at 6 months and I think she was on two meals by 7 months and three by 8 months. We were very much led by her though, I only introduced another meal when I noticed her interest in bottles was declining.

She was a very hungry baby and I spoke with my hv and she said I could try it. She took to it amazing and she is showing a little less interest in bottles now so i might introduce 3rd meal. Thank you
