Baby led weaning/feeding

I know it's a ways off for us but I found this article interesting... Sorry Idk how to make it clicky. I think we will be exploring this option more vs pureed foods when the timing is right.

Re: Baby led weaning/feeding

  • I have a few mommy friends from the group I have from ds birth that did this and said it was wonderful. I did that baby food thing but ds let me know when he was done with that crap so to say. I think I might do the blw this time around.

  • this has definitely peaked my interest and sounds way more appealing than nasty jarred foods or driving myself nuts making my own baby food.

  • Yup. We did the pured baby foods things with my DD. It wasn't a horrible experience by any means but I can see the benefits from blw more so then going the pured food way. It will all be trial and error of course...
  • I did Blw with my youngest. She had pured food just not as a staple in her diet. I loved it. She is now 14 months old and has two teeth but eats everything that we do. She also seemed to take to new foods better than the others that had pured food as a staple

    We did it with DD and I feel completely lost as to why anyone wouldn't! It is easy and nutritious, and really more 'normal'. Again thoug it is one of those things that if you are feeding your child then there isn't a right way, so I dont't care if others don't do it.

    i totally agree! It was so easy! DD has always just eaten what we eat so there's never been a battle of having to prepare additional meals.

  • DS was a big fan. He hated being spoon fed and is now ahead of a lot of his little peers at feeding himself with a spoon or fork. It was way less work for me - and I got to eat my own meals hot and with the family. Loved it and will BLW again.
