So today has been our third attempt at weaning my 6.5 months old DD and it's not going very well. She does not seem to know what to do with the food in her mouth and she gagged and spat everything out again. I tried both finger food, i.e. carrot sticks, and mashed up carrot. She does seem very keen to eat, grabbed the spoon and fed herself and also grabbed the finger food and put it into her mouth.
I stopped when she gagged and vomited her milk feed as well.
She has always been a very puky baby, bringing up lots of milk, often via spectacular projectile vomiting.
Should I just carry on as we are? It feels like we are not getting anywhere..
