I started at 4 months properly, but he had some at 3 just to test the waters. He can sit up, hold his head and was reaching for my food so i started even though the guidance is 6 months. He held the spoon the other day and was feeding himself which was adorable, but i can barely get a health visitor out to see him of i have concerns so ive just been led by the baby

Margerine, baby cereals, rice, jeeeez might as well start them off with Mcdonalds! NHS with the typical outdated food groups. Grass fed meat, fish and vegetables are best!

@NHS do you have an updated list of this information? Perhaps one that does not recommend processed foods like margarine? I wouldn't eat it as an adult..

NHS recommend margarine for babies as a part of a healthy diet??

Our health visitor has told us to stop giving our 8 month old 4 bottles a day and give only 2 bottles a day and 3 meals, even though she doesn't eat much during her meals. I am super concerned about this advice, is it correct?

Thanks for the very informative video. Is it ok to start weaning a few weeks (2 weeks to be exact) after the baby turns 6 months? This is mainly due to the fact that we will be traveling.
