My DD is 22.5 wo and I am confused about the weaning process.
Over the last few days I have been giving her puréed fruit and vegetable.Some she likes eating but all she likes smearing on herself...lots of fun. I've been feeding her off of a spoon and she willingly opens her mouth for the next taste. However, I would like to give her finger foods so she doesn't only think food is delivered into her mouth. I'd like to try BLW
So my questions are...
- Should I offer her FF alongside the purées
Developmentally she is not yet able to sit up unsupported and her hand eye coordination is still a bit hit and miss (but she would be practising this skill using BLW)
- Should I wait until the recommended 6 months when she might be better at biting and chewing.
I don't want to put her off the idea of food by getting it wrong
