This is my first time on the board and I'm hoping you can help! I've been trying to wean my ds (who is nearly 7 months) for 8 weeks on and off. He doesn't sleep through the night and is clearly v hungry but he has never willingly swallowed anything other than milk. I've tried every fruit or veg puree imaginable and a little bit of finger food. I've also tried different times of the day. But he clamps his mouth tight shut and if he ever does swallow anything he gags it up, often bringing his milk up too. Weaning my first son (now 2) was a breeze and I am at a loss as to what to do. HV is absolutely useless and says he should be eating loads by now. Is anyone else in the same boat? or has any advice?
