Weaning

When will I know my child is ready to begin weaning?

When your child is around six months old, they will begin to need more formula/breast milk to meet their needs. This is when you introduce solid foods and drinks alongside formula milk/breast milk (this is not a replacement.)

Please see the attached link with some useful information on weaning.
