DS is 7.5 months and BLW. He loves his food and over the weeks we have both become more confident in the whole eating thing.
But - here is what happened: I gave him unpeeled apple slices in the afternoon (he normally eats the good part and drops skins). Then 1h play, bath, BF. He seemed to gag while BF, but I thought it's just the milk squirting against the back of his throat. After long BF I put him on his back and he he was almost asleep.
I do not know but some seventh sense
kicked in and I pried (sp?) his mouth open. He had stored a whole apple slice peel in there and had been repeatedly gagging on it.
Well, maybe he would have slept with it and spit it our during the night or the next day But he had it in his mouth for hours ...
So we have a no peel/no sking policy in our house now and I inspect mouth before sleeps.
I do no want to scare anybody but thought I share, especially because I am a big fan of BLW!
