My 5 month old is desperate for food, help!

My LO has just turned 5 months and she is actively trying to grab, staring at and even getting angry over the fact she can’t have our food.

Currently she can’t sit unaided so I’m very much planning on waiting until 6 months maybe even longer; is there anything I can try until then that is safe? Maybe breastmilk frozen lollies as I also think she’s teething?

My baby has always had a shallow latch due to ties, even after having her tongue tie cut. Usually we manage without pain but last week she cluster fed and now both nipples are in so much pain.
One even had a blood blister that popped and when she drinks from it it’s excruciating. I know I need latch help but until then I need any home remedies as possible please. I have nipple cream, express milk onto them and I’ve just ordered some silverettes. Help a girl out 🙏🏻
