I am a first time mom and I know it is still way too early to wean him yet as he is only 10 weeks old. I know the proper age is around 6 months when they start eating baby food. But, my question is, will he cry or do some kind of gester if he is still hungry or do I keep feeding him until he doesn't eat anymore? I don't want to overfeed him, that is why I ask. I am clueless! :dohh:
 
Generally a baby will let you know they're full by turning their head away from the spoon or if you're BLW, they'll just start to play with the food instead of eating it. If you look for the cues, you won't overfeed.

You can use baby signing to teach them to tell you when they're full but that will take a while before they get the hang of it :D
 
Yep, you'll figure out your LO's cue that he's had enough, just like they have their cues that they've finished having their milk x
