When is the right time to start weaning?

Weaning should begin around 6 months and not before 17 weeks. Choose a time of day when your little one is not too tired or too hungry.  And make sure you’ve got plenty of time – you don’t want to rush. This is an overwhelming time for your baby as they learn new tastes, textures.
