Ok so whist your on the just starting weaning .... tastes of baby rice & juice can baby have snacks of ANY kind? All I have found is cow & gate rice biscuits today stage 1 6mnths+ but in Boots the other day rice cakes were 9mnth+



Caitlins really liking the food thing

I dont think any of them do any little snacks for under 6 months but you could try bread & butter and banana and big lumps of cooked veg.

have you ever heard of babyled weaning wobbles, its fantastic, I do puree/mash my little girls meals but do incorporate abit of this too

Yer thats mainly why I ask. Im comfortable with puree/mash foods but would like to introduce something more solid.

Im getting all baffled again if Im honest at th eweaning lark. It says to offer baby the tip at first but Caitlins dived right in as appears to like it!

Then I would follow her lead and just be on hand if shes needs a help out. These babies are smarter than we give them credit for, if Caitlin is happy to lift some grub then I would offer it. Cooked broccoli and cauliflower are great cause you can give them a little handle with the stalk

Toast is a good one and a big cube of cheese, bigger than her mouth

oh just read the tip part in your post, I always ignored that and made a bit extra so they could get a few spoonfuls its hard to take the bowl away when they're looking at you as if to say 'its surely not finished'

I loved this for Jack

you can put anything in it for a snack for her with no risk of choking
so yould try her on a rice cake if you think she needs its, you'll prob have to hold it for her though

I got Jack from Ebay and there is another make out there but can't recall what it is called

I personally think rice cakes are the best first snack

the other make is MUNCHKIN

Wobbles: I'd let her have as much or as little food as she likes.

A little off-topic, but if anyone else has a Munchkin (or other) - how on earth do you clean yours?? Mine always gets the food stuck in the end of the net.. x

ive never used one for that reason, i heard they were terrible to clean.

I used to blast mine with the tap on full and for really stuck bits a toothbrush
Used to steralise mine as well
