Hi, wondering if anyone can please help. My son is 6 months and one week, started weaning two weeks ago with single veg. A combination of purées/mash and finger food along side it. First two days were really good and he actually got a fair bit down him. Picking up the broccoli and putting it in his mouth, grabbing spoon and putting it in his mouth. But things seem to have got progressively worse... he just seems to get upset really quickly. I put him in his chair with finger food and I offer him the spoon, he doesn’t put any of the finger food towards his mouth, just plays with it now and maybe grabs one or two spoons but then just gets really upset so I stop and take him out of the chair because I don’t want it to be a negative experience for him.
What am I doing wrong? Is there anything I can do? Should I pause on the weaning?
Oh and I give him his ‘meal’ at the same time each day roughly, after his morning nap.
I was thinking I would start giving him breakfast after two weeks (so around now) of some of my milk mix with porridge and different fruits so he could try different flavours but perhaps moving to two meals is not a good idea if he’s being like this currently?
Thanks in advance! Feeling anxious and I know I shouldn’t because it’s really early days !
