1 Answer

A. The baby should be able to sit up unassisted before starting baby led weaning. They should have strong neck control as well. Start offering finger foods but he or she might not actually eat anything for a couple of months. There is no need to force or scold during this process. Provide encouragement and support. Allow him or her a few moments to work it out themselves, but also trust your gut on when to intervene. Pull the high chairs up to the table and including them during family meals also helps babies learn how mealtimes work, understand how utensils work and sets them up for a foundation of fun, enjoyable mealtimes. Start with soft foods like ripe fruit, well cooked vegetables etc. Prepare these foods in a way that makes them easy to grasp. Be prepared for a mess.
