Baby Led Weaning

Yep, that's what I've done with my boy - it's been great. I don't think there's anything he hasn't eaten...

I actually gave banana still in its skin in the early days, cut into thirds - he'd get his gums/teeth into the flesh and eventually leave the skin behind.

If you want to know more feel free to pm me.

Me to!! lol, I did this with DS2 and he is such a great, non fussy eater. DS1 I made mush for him an he's quite fussy. Whether that's a direct result of the different styles of introducing food or simply different kids (and they are very very different boys) I'm not sure but I found although it's messier doing baby led feeding they're more competent an independent from an early age. I used to get numerous comments from mums about how great DS2 was at feeding himself an it's just because he was allowed.

I will certainly be doing this with DD, good luck
