| 6 months and we didn't do baby rice or any puree. We do baby led weaning, so she gets offered whatever we're eating, so things like roasted veg, cheese on toast, fruit. | | | | Status: Offline

| 5 months 1 week on GP advice due to non-existent weight gain - wish I'd ignored the advice now! Started with baby rice mixed with mashed banana and we're now fully on BLW  | | | | Status: Online
