Sara Hearts; Mommy Blog: Weaning Little Bean

We started weaning our little boy at 16weeks possibly earlier as he was showing signs of wanting to be on solids, and baby will tell you when they are ready so we decided to only try baby rice.

As you can see it is marked that you are able to start this product at 4month (17weeks) And many books will tell you to definitely not to start any early, but in my eyes why stop your baby from trying if your baby wants to??

So how to go about weaning little bean!? Well start to introduce your little gem with 1 spoon a day with their bottle of milk, or after feeding breast milk.

Make sure you and your baby are relaxed, and that your baby isn't screaming for food or it wont be successful!

Also when letting baby try new tastes books always recommend to leave 3 days as your baby will have a reaction if they have an allergy within this time! So don't bombard your little one with lots of new tastes at once!

I have now tried little Tyler on pear, which he loves!! He has also tried carrot which he also likes, along with baby porridge! Which has now put him slightly off his baby rice as it's probably a little "boring" now!!

We plan to try apple next which will be exciting as we also have apple juice to try with him!

Here are some pictures of Tyler trying his food.
