About this audiobook
Baby-led weaning is the healthy, natural way to start your baby on solid foods-no stress, no fuss, no mush!
Ten years ago, Baby-Led Weaning ended the myth that babies need to be spoon-fed purees. 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.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Great book on how to introduce solids to your baby offering an alternative to the popular spoon feed puree method we have come used to. I definitely plan on using a baby led weaning style to introduce food to Zachary and this book provides the right dose of information and reference to begin this process in the coming weeks.
