The new Annabel Karmel by Lindam weaning range helps babies progress from first tastes to feeding themselves. Don’t be in a hurry to wean your baby onto solids. Milk provides all the nutrients your baby needs for the first 6 months or so. Solids should not be introduced until at least 17 weeks after your baby’s due date as a young baby’s digestive and immune system is not sufficiently developed before this time.

Whilst there are four nutritional stages within weaning, there are only two feeding stages making it easier for mums. From 6 to 9 months portion sizes will fit the same bowl, although the consistency and nutritional value of the food will change. Then from 9 to 18 months the child requires a deeper more contoured bowl to make it easier for them to feed themselves.
