I had a '6 month review ' with my health visitor even though my baby is 5 months and so far I have taken a lot of her advice with a pinch of salt because when I've checked out some of the things she's recommended online the NHS website pretty much contradicts her every time.
Today she asked me if I've weaned my baby and I said no she's only just turned 5 months old and I thought the advice was wait for 6 months and she told me I could wean now because she's holding her head up and if she's looking for more milk or waking in the night these are signs she's ready. The NHS website pretty much contradicts all of this and says these are NOT signs they are ready. Which am I to believe?? What did everyone else go with?
