Baby Led Weaning

There is a new fad going around in the world of babies. Basically it says puréed food isn't natural for babies. They should be able to explore foods and eat when the are ready. While there are some good points to this I still feed puréed foods but I give some whole as well.

Here is Belle chowing down on a pear which she loved!! I have also given her bananas whole and she loves them even though they get really slippery! This way of feeding is really messy but she seems to like what we have tried so far. I think I am going to give her some steamed carrots tomorrow and see how she fares.

Tchau,
Sara
