Has anyone used baby-led weaning?
I am thinking about doing this in a couple of months with DS (3m). I love the idea that DS takes the food that we eat and enjoys social mealtimes.
How much did you have to change what you ate to accomodate your baby's allowed foods?
I know honey, egg white & small foods that are choking hazards are not advised (grapes/ nuts etc).
Any bad experiences?
Any advice? Any receipe ideas?
What age did you start? I am planning 6-months as that is WHO advice, but I already give DS a plastic spoon to play with during my breakfast when he sits with me in his bouncy chair. He loves it, cant get it anywhere near his mouth, keeps hitting his head with the spoon, but is loving having a spoon like Mummy to play with and copy me.
