Is your child ready for solids?

It can be difficult to know when to start feeding your baby solid food but in most cases your child will tell you that they need more to eat, the signs of this are that

• your child is still hungry after a full milk feed, often crying after a feed
• they start to demand feeds more often
• they start to wake up during the night for a feed when they would usually have slept straight through.

If you are in any way unsure about whether to introduce solids or not get advice from a medical professional.
