Month 8 news
Your little champ is growing more curious by the day. Baby's brain is working overtime to understand the world, so they'll turn to hear a voice or look at something that catches their eye. They are also able to sit unassisted and get into a sitting position from lying on their belly. After all, it won't be long until they're crawling, cruising and toddling around all by themselves... |

The Expert View
You and your baby are probably moving on from mushy foods and purees. Soft finger foods will be going down a treat and you can also start thinking about food mashed up with a fork – like fish or potatoes. Remember, your little one is still getting most of their nourishment from milk (breastmilk or about 500ml if your baby is on formula), just don't introduce cow's milk just yet. |

Ready to introduce a beaker or cup into your routine? A lot of mums aim to do this at this stage and have all bottles cut out by 12 months. It's best to try introducing the cup at a meal time, when baby is not too tired. |

Tip: Keep going!
If your baby dislikes any new food during weaning, don't get discouraged. It can take up to 14 tries before your baby thinks a new food is yummy!! Try our feeding chart to keep track. |
