Do you know what the leaflet was called? I just had a look on the BLISS website but couldn't see anything (probably looking in the wrong place!).
Thx

you can wean your baby from five months but i would let your baby tell you when he/she is ready you go by your babys birth date not the date he/she shouldhave been born hope this helps.
