Baby led weaning basics

Babyled weaning is a method for introducing solid foods that doesn t involve purees or spoon feeding. Instead, your baby feeds herself soft foods that you place in front of her. Our video will walk you through the basics, from when you can start giving your baby finger foods to how you can make sure she s safe when she s eating. While there s no evidence that your baby is more likely to choke while eating this way, it s still important to watch your child closely during meals and know what to do if your baby starts to choke: Note that choking is usually silent, so you re not likely to notice that your baby is in distress unless you re watching. Always keep a close eye on your baby during babyled weaning. Track your babys development with the worlds, 1 pregnancy and parenting resource, delivered via email, our apps, and website. Register now:
