so she didnt drop any more centiles (we had a problem with that before) BUT i just found out today that the norwegian plan of weaning starts actually at 4 m and not at 6 m!!!!!
i dont really mind as its only baby rice,porridge vegetables and fruit until 6 m anyway BUT Amelie has none of it! she will not open her mouth for the spoon whatsoever!
she is not ready for finger food either as she cant really pick and put in her mouth accurate yet.
so as the hv was a little worried that she wouldnt take the spoon at all i have to go again next week to see if there is any improvement at all.
heeeeeh! until now i thought they are pestering me because of the drop in the centiles i didnt actually realise that weaning here actually starts at 4 months with tastes from 14 weeks.
they want her at 2 meals per day (extra meals not to replace milk just fillers for now and to replace the milk at 20 weeks when it will be milk-meal-milk-meal-milk)
talk about stressing now as she will not open her mouth for the spoon lol...
i suppose next week i am gonna tell the hv that we will have to wait until she actually wants food. i mean she dosent even drink her milk i dont see her wanting food either any day soon lol
also when can they actually pick things ok and start putting them in their mouth more accurate? maybe i cna start directly with finger food even if she is not 6 m.
i think i saw people here starting blw at 4m 1/2 and 5 m!
i asked what the hurry is with weaning and got told because of the extra need of vitamin d and A etc becasue we live in norway, weanign here starts earlier to rush with the nutritients a little so all the baby rice here is fortified with whatever extra the babies need at that age
