I weaned at 5 months and wished I hadn't now. wish i'd made the most of another month of just boob, also think earlier weaning contributed to the 2 nursing strikes which stopped us bfing

if I have any more babies, il defo wait till 6 months

Plus it takes alot of time too, the effort of making sure he is happy enough to sit still in his highchair - my lo is such an active little man!

I was scared to death and continued to believe that it would be 6 months corrected age for age.

Til I got my Bliss pack through the door which informed me preemies need to be weaned at their ACTUAL age! 5-7 months!

So realistically I had to wean Alex at 2-4 months!!!!!! I was spewing at this and really held back until I though she can manage.

Even now I am very wary about what I give her and I am pretty scared about it all
