I know the general thought is that you don’t have to make anything special, babies can just eat what you eat (with reduced salt and no honey etc) but it’s really not working. My baby is 6.5 months and all she’s had is a tiny taste of porridge. She won’t bring the food to her mouth, she just gets annoyed. If I spoon feed her she refuses.
She is showing an interest in food and tries to grab it but then won’t eat it. So frustrating - help!

Very confused about weaning

Thank you. I probably sound stupid but she just gets frustrated and I can’t help but think it might be easier to wait until she has some teeth? I have her a pasta piece the other day and she just got angry as she kept dropping it.
I hate weaning.

I keep reading that but I tried her with apple the other day and there’s no way she’d have been able to munch that.
I may leave it until 9 months. She just doesn’t seem very happy or to be enjoying the process much.
