Baby

Weaning is the next stage and knowing what to do can be confusing. There is lots of different advise out there on when to wean, between 4 and 6 months is possibly the ideal time as this is when most babies will grow their first teeth. It is a gradual process for both you and your baby, if you stop too quickly your breasts may become sore and engorged and your baby needs time to adjust to solid food. We can discuss different approaches to weaning in a private consultation where we can agree what will suit you, your baby and your lifestyle. You can also visit Netmums for advice on baby led weaning Netmums.  This particular approach is just one option and is potentially quite different to what you may be used to but I have seen babies thrive and thoroughly enjoy the process of discovering food.

Good nutrition is not just important for babies but also for the whole family. Following a good diet is essential for all the family whether you are 1 or 100.
