  Ditto the Gill Rapley book.  It is the definitive BLW book.

  I think Gill Rapley's is the only BLW book out there, frankly.

  I really like this article: https://www.borstvoeding.com/voedselintroductie/blw/engels.html

  And the book "Real Food For Mother and Baby" by Nina Planck has a few chapters about great first foods for kids - it's not a BLW book, or even really that instructional, but it's helpful.

  I always rec Gill Rapley's BLWing book, and my daycare that's been super on board with it also recommends Child of Mine b/c it has a lot of principles of not fighting our kids to eat things, letting them dictate quantity, etc. (I bought it and haven't read it yet though!).

  I personally found Rapley's book a little bit silly. And maybe it is just because the idea is so easy. Baby just eats real food! If I eat an English Muffin, so does DD. Just give LO food and you'll be fine.   I actually found the forum much more helpful than the book.  https://www.babyledweaning.com/forum/

  If you want a book, that's the one.

  I just got it from the library. I didn't need to own it.

  I like the BLW book and the BLW cookbook.  The cookbook isn't necessary, but I think it has good ideas in it.  I don't eat super healthy myself, and I am trying to change that, so having some ideas that are particularly baby and BLW friendly is helpful for me.

  Thanks everyone!  I ordered it because our library doesn't carry it.
