We're finding that the mums who wait til 6 months often have problems with weaning...

Said HV to me.

DD3 is 7 months. Eats nothing. Plays with (and sometimes licks or chews) lots of foods. Spits anything on a spoon in your face.

Apparently it's all part of a conspiracy theory. They used to say 4 months but then lots of people started at 2 or 3. If they say 6, most people will wait a bit longer.

I exclusively bf to 6 months, and then did BLW. DS is now 22 months and eats anything and everything. In fact the only thing that he has been known to refuse was when someone tried to give him jarred food.

There is no window of opportunity !
