About this ebook

From the founders of Baby-Led Weaning: This is the authoritative guide to starting solid foods at your child's pace—as they start the transition away from breastmilk or formula as early as 6 months—with no stress, no fuss, and no mush! Ten years ago, Baby-Led Weaning ended the myth that babies need to be spoon-fed purées. In fact, at about six months, most babies are ready to discover solid food for themselves. Today, baby-led weaning (BLW) is a global phenomenon—and this tenth anniversary edition of the definitive guide explains all its benefits:
  • Baby participates in family meals right from the start, and learns to love a variety of foods.
  • Nutritious milk feedings continue while Baby transitions to solids at his or her own pace.
  • By self-feeding, Baby develops hand-eye coordination, chewing skills—and confidence!
Plus, this edition is updated with the latest research on allergy prevention and feeding Baby safely, a guide to using BLW at daycare, and much more. Here is everything you need to know about teaching your child healthy eating habits that will last a lifetime.

Not what I expected. It is a guide yet it doesn't mention how often you should feed the baby in the first days of blw. Very disappointing. I found more information searching on Google for free. Waste of money.

seems very pro meat and pro breast, didn't fit our family as unable to breastfeed. Did not enjoy being reminded "how great it was for baby"
