Hi, I try giving my DD baby rice in the morning or bits of banana, sometimes she's interested sometimes not. Then at 12.30pm ish i try some pured vegetables and then at 5.30pm i give her some more veggi stuff. She sometimes has lunch and always has something for tea.
Is there a right or wrong time to give it to her.
After a milk feed I offer her food. Is there a right or wrong time to offer food?
I ain't got a clue. She's 7 months old next week?

We just had our kids sit at the table with us and followed their cues. We didn't have the babies pick the time - they fitted in with the rest of the family. And they ate family food, either finger foods, or something chopped up so that they could be spoon fed.

If you want her to eat solids, don't give her a milk feed first.

I always split the milk/solids so the milk came first and the solids about an hour later. milk was around 7am, 11am, 3pm, 7.15pm and solids were around 8am, 12pm and 5pm.
