6m old, windy after starting weaning

[Callamia]

I have forgotten everything. Help.
My second baby has just started on solid food. He’s not constipated (yay!) but he’s certainly very windy and often seems uncomfortable at night (ugh, I thought we’d got over this). Is this normal enough? I assume it’s his body getting used to new food?

Yes, it's normal. We had it for maybe the first 2-3 weeks and then it got a bit better. I think just start as slow as you can, just one meal a day, until it improves a bit.

I’m happy to go slow. He just gets a few (small) spoonfuls of porridge, or a bit of vegetable to chew on. Now he’s got a cold too, so all the sleeplessness.

oh god, the stench that comes from my DS who's now 7.5 mo...............

But not uncomfortable mostly. Although there does seem to be an 'aaaaaaaaaaah' almost after a good trumping session
