Weaning

Does anyone have any advise on where I can read about what BLW actually is? Also what is the alternative to baby led weaning? Thank you.

Blw is basically giving them things they can pick up and hold so they are "leading" with what they're eating by actually taking it, rather than being fed puree. My first I tried a bit of both but she never liked me doing the feeding so i either gave her wee bits on a spoon to do herself or she used to eat straight from the wee pouches lol

Baby led weaning is offering babe solid foods from the start and letting them feed themselves everything. The alternative would be traditional weaning or combination weaning. Traditional weaning is using puree and feeding babe with a spoon. Combination weaning is a mixture of both methods - letting babe feed themselves some food and feeding them others. X
