Baby is 5 months, has cmpa and is on aptimal pepti 1 for this.
I've started giving her little tastes of carrot and broccoli puréed myself at home. We're waiting for an appointment with the dietician.
Was just in the shop and thought I'd grab a couple of Ella's kitchen pouches to see how she gets on, it says on the back what's in them but just wondering is there anything hidden ? I'm worried about any dairy being in there that isn't stated !
Thanks

Is Ella's kitchen full of Crap ?

I used Ella’s Kitchen at times with my baby. They’re really handy for when you’re out, don’t have much time etc.
Regarding the age to begin weaning, the NHS does say 6 months (and so health visitors will follow this), but I do believe that you know your baby best and if they’re eyeing up your food, seem hungry after milk, not sleeping as long as usual…I’d go for it. I started weaning at 5 months. My HV is lovely and has always said that the guidelines are there but that babies are individual and will send you clear messages when they’re ready to eat/toilet train/walk etc.

Annabel K’s advice is quite different to most these days. She suggests starting with sweet stuff or baby rice purées - opposite to most. I’d take her with a pinch of salt. Try How to Wean Your Baby for something a bit more up to date.
Re allergies, read the ingredients thoroughly. If it’s not in there, it can’t legally be in the pack.
