Weaning

Why see a paediatric dietitian for weaning issues?

​

Such and exciting and fun time! (so you hear everyone say) but it can also be quite a stressful time.

Not knowing what foods, what textures, when or how to feed your baby can be overwhelming. To add to this, your child might have had a trickier start to life, perhaps with reflux or a medical condition which has meant weaning has been a little stop/start.

Sometimes this can mean babies are more likely to gag/reject solids and this can feel even more scary and you're left not knowing how to move forward. I can help reassure you and give some safe and practical tips, this could include meal plans for weaning.
