Baby Led Weaning
Lucas is turning 8 months end of December. How time flies! He is having semi-solid for 1.5months.
I am introducing Baby Led Weaning partially. Not sure if it is getting common in Singapore but because we met a mummy from the UK in the forum, and that's where I learn about BLW. In brief, it involves no puree and introducing finger food to your baby when they are ready.
Why partially? It's because it's time consuming and it can get VERY messy, especially banana! I have given him broccoli, carrots, sweet potatoes, pieces of meat, apples, pears, prunes and even puree.... It is very fun to watch. In the beginning, when his princer grip still wasn't that good, Lucas will comb through his hair or clean himself with the food in his hands. He is much better now. At least, his aiming gets better... the messiness is lessened. He still drops his food though. Watch him munch the pear. He actually finished half of what he is holding onto.
BLW in the WWW says, it also encourages sitting together to have family food. Thus, I made an attempt to have him sit in together for lunch. Simple dishes that I prepared. 100% fat free ABC soup. I was in the mood today and snapped a few photos.
