I am a new mother, learning every step along the way. From breastfeeding to eventually introducing solid. Naturally I'll also be wondering how am i suppose to introduce solid to my little Sonia. At first i thought yea sure the majority mass is giving puree then porridge etc..... I have to learn those too! Until i came across Baby-led Weaning (BLW for short)! And i was attracted to it straighaway! I started to read up more and more.And I am totally convinced this IS the way! It is the natural way of introducing solid to her and i love that its baby-led! I told my hubby about it and bhoy was i glad he agreed to it and was as excited as i am. So when Sonia reached 5.5mo, she was already sitting unassisted and very much wanting to grab our food I gave it a go! For i know she wont be able to eat much... I was just planning to let her play with food! I started with lightly steam carrot and fresh cucumber. She was doing so well on the first day! And already eating chunks of the food! There's no turning back since! I've started to introduce more and more types of food since.
I experienced myself that babies are really smart and just amazing! Their capabilities have no limit. They just need to be given a chance to prove how awesome they are!
This blog serves as a food log for Sonia and to amaze myself on her progress. It also serves as some info for mommies who are inspired to do BLW too. Some infos are taken from Baby-led Weaning book by Gill Rapley and from the internet serving as a one stop basic info.
Do share with me your journey or recipes!! :D
