Please remind me of the arguements against early weaning

[Blondeinlondon]

Hello
Now I know there are a load of reasons for not weaning until 6 mths but I can't remember them

I am seeing a friend next week who has just started weaning at 16 weeks
Whilst I will not be telling her what to do as it's none of my business I'd like to be ready with the reasons against if she asks
Cheers!

Me three! Have just started though, at 24wks, and what a faff/mess! She isn't as keen as I imagined she'd be though is happier playing with the spoon herself and then pulling her face at the tastes/textures. Probably a bad thing in terms of mess but a good thing for when I start giving finger foods.
