Really want to try blw with ds2 he is just coming up to 23 weeks so nearly ready, I am jus really nervous that as he has 2 teeth already he's going to take big chunks off things and choke!?? Also any advice on blw would b much appreciated thank u :-)

Even without teeth they can bite chunks off things. Give nice soft food like well-cooked carrot, or banana while they get used to eating.

That's what the gag reflex is for - if they try to swallow any large pieces it will kick in. Their reflex is much further forward than adults in order to protect them.

My daughter gummed off bits of pepper and coughed it straight out when it got in her throat!
