A Mom’s Practical Guide to Baby-Led Weaning
Congratulations! If you’re here, you are either starting to experiment with baby’s first foods or you’re looking ahead to that exciting day. It’s so much fun to introduce our children to healthy, delicious meals and the earlier, the better!
I wrote A Mom’s Practical Guide to Baby-Led Weaning because I know that this approach can be a little overwhelming. In this book, you will learn:
- What Baby-Led Weaning Is
- Why It’s Great for Babies
- Why It’s Great for Parents!
- When and How to Start
- Answers to Your Concerns and Questions
- The Ten Best Baby-Led Weaning Foods
Traditionally, parents have been told to start their children on pureed foods, oatmeal and rice cereal and other soft items. That’s certainly what I was advised when my first daughter approached 6 months, and there’s nothing wrong with that method.
But more and more, there’s evidence that giving kids real, solid foods — prepared appropriately, of course — can have incredible benefits both in their first few experiences with eating but for years to come.
