Begin with just a teaspoon or less when you are first introducing solids and then slowly increase to a tablespoon or more as your baby gets the
hang of eating solid foods.
You should look for other potential signs before you decide it's time to start weaning your child, and you should always be certain your baby is physically and developmentally capable
of eating solid foods before you begin the weaning process.
As your baby grows into the early
stages of eating solid foods, you're going to find yourself having to remember to pack not only the food in the diaper bag, but also a spoon, bib (or 2), plastic baggies, paper towels, wipes, and still, at the end of the day, you'll probably be shoving a dirty bib into the diaper bag (and, let's be honest, forget that it's there and find a sweet potato crusted bib three weeks later).
Weaning occurs at about four to five weeks of age, but keep in mind that some kittens take a bit longer, especially without a mom - cat to show them the
wonders of eating solid food.
