Not like I'm going to but when did everyone start their babies on baby rice does it have to be dead on 6 months even for…

I started my daughter at 5 months and my son at 7 weeks (this was under my health visitors advice. He was having a 9oz bottle of hungry baby milk every 2 hours aswell as breastfeeding inbetween) you will get to a point where milk just isnt enough for them. Initially there may be some constipation as their little system adjusts but thats completely normal x

@kayteamay thanks for the info I just wanna see what people think and have done do you know when they are ready do you think xx

My daughter was 19 weeks and my son nearly 6 months Xx @jobraydendanny

My boy got tastes of it from 3 n bit month and was fully on it by 4 month he lives his food,this 6 months crap is a lot of rubbish a work in a nursery and all the other mums started their kids before 6 months too, start when u feel ur baby is showing signs of being hungry like munching hands etc xx

@chesscalouise2 could you tell when they were ready xx

I tried when my son was 19 weeks and he just wasnt ready I only tried because my health visitor and doctor told me to as he had severe colic and reflux to be honest its so much easier too just give them a bottle and wean them at 6 months less money and less mess when there just on milk and all there lovely clothes dont get wrecked of course if your told to try her then do or if you think shes ready your her mum you no best but I think weaning is a pain in the a** Xx @jobraydendanny

I was wondering this myself my baby is 4months and follows me bringing things like food or tea to my mouth and my elder son did that and I knew was a sign he knows it’s food as he also gets upset and I say to my bf he’s hungry as can see us eating etc. So good hearing from other moms x

I know that they recommend waiting until 6 months but I started my wee one at 5 months. I was exclusively breastfeeding and I was exhausted. Couldn't hold her out any longer. Definitely comes a time when milk doesn't cut it x

I weaned my daughter early- I just gave puréed veg- baby rice doesn't have any nutritional value so veg is better in my opinion! X
