Baby led weaning bible book

Mommy is very curious about this baby led weaning method and bought this book
They give us insight about what BLW is all about, do and don'ts and also delicious recipes

Some insights about BLW
- Nobody "feeds" the baby, when he's ready he starts handling food and taking it to his mouth by himself
- It's up to the baby how much he eats, and how fast he eats it
- The baby continues to have milk feeds whenever he wants them and decides when he is ready to begin reducing them
- Mealtimes is playing time
- He will explore the food with fingers out of curiosity rather than hungry
- No schedule to follow, the best time to do BLW when he's not hungry nor tired

Is my baby ready ? Some signs to watch out
- Sit with little or no support
- Reach out and grab things effectively
- Take objects to their mouth quickly and accurately
- Make gwaning and chewing movements

The gag reflex
When baby gags, food that isn't ready to be swallowed is pushed forward in a retching movement to prevent it getting to the back of the throat.
To help the gag reflex to work for baby, make sure that he is setting upright while he's eating so that any food that isn't ready for swallowing falls forward out of his mouth
It's also important that none but your baby puts the food into his mouth so that he can take the time he needs to control each mouthful effectively.
