@MrsCarrieG your baby wouldn't choke on whole foods because the tongue thrust would prevent that. They may gag, but that's not harmful and brings it back up. Spoon feeding purees and cereals are actually more of a choking hazard because they are pushed to the back of the mouth and down the throat before the baby can control it.
Lily seemed to really want to start eating at this age. When we sat down together she would point at our food and then her mouth. She was almost 5 months old and the time felt right so we went for it. She barely swallowed any anyway. She is a fantastic eater now. She's just had about 10 mini weetabix, half a bannana and some penut butter on toast. I believe that you should trust your instincts on these kind of things. The advice changes all the time anyway. If it feels right - go for it!
Theres a bit of a difference between smoking around your child and giving them solid food. As long as they can gum it down enough to swallow it there stomach can digest it ... our intestines are a strong organ.I have 6 siblings who were all fed using BLW. dont fight with me on this, its safe.
@Frenchblue8 There is a choking risk with anything- solids, mashed foods, toys etc. These things do happen but that doesn't mean BLW is putting your baby at risk any more than normally. It teaches them good solid food technique sooner so that choking is less of a problem in later months. As long as you go about it safely it doesn't have to be dangerous. I think most parents should read up about choking and first aid just to be safe anyway. Glad your baby was ok, by the way.
@Anglynn74 Interesting that you you refer to BLW as 'these new frangeled experiments'. Wonder what parents did thousands of years ago before the invention of blenders and feeding utensils. Totally agree with parents being prepared for choking hazards though as they can occur at any time with children, whether they're doing BLW, being spoonfed or simply playing with toys. Highly recommend that any one looking after children do a first aid course!
BLW is linked to lower BMI's, healthier eating habits and fewer food allergies. My son started solids, real solids not puree at 4 months, hes never choked and eat anything I give him to try. This is not a new concept at all, my mother, grandmother and great grand mother all fed us this way they just called it teaching us to eat!
@@patrickwalsh5729If you don't believe them, call your local health department or pediatrician. BLM babies are no more likely to choke, and as they get older are LESS likely because they have learned how to eat regular food from a young age.
@@asheisadora Explaining it to people who are just looking for an argument is so pointless lol. Parents know their child and what to do with them better than anyone, trust your instincts and watch your child and you, and they, will be just fine.
@bitasuite Totally agree! Parents know best. And as for Lily, she looks far more advanced than some 6 month olds I've seen doing BLW. She's trying to chew and everything! The WHO have released new guidelines this year to say that breastfed babies can start weaning any time from 4months - 6 months, which is a change to the previous 6 mth recommendation.
(con't) because I ended up having to push it down the back of her throat as far as I could. Only when she then coughed and burst out crying did I know she was really ok. I have never told this to a soul, nor was it easy for me to type about it here, But if our story could make even one parent rethink giving tiny babies giant stalks of broccoli. etc., it was worth reliving that horrific day. When baby starts eating 'solids' is personal. But no one has the right to risk a child for a fad.
Awesome parents! She is developping early sensorial skills by experiencing touching, tasting with the mouth! It looks obvious the food has been steamed! Baby looks well taken care of busy experiencing! Better to see this rather than people taking their babies to MacDonalds and filming them shitting their diaper while eating!!!
I understand trying to get baby used to different tastes and textures but why do the food pieces have to be so big? Why not in smaller more manageable pieces? And if you're introducing more then one food at a time and baby has an allergy how do you know what the baby had the reaction to?
My baby (our second) is three months old so I'm looking into BLW now so I can prepare. Have just ordered the book by Gill Rapley so I can see what sort of foods are most appropriate. Thank you for you video. Nct advice is to buy s crinkle cutter so that foods are easier to pick up. Never tried this method with my first child and regretted it.
@Frenchblue8 so sorry to hear of your story, brave of u to share to save others, I don't understand why things that are choking hazards are given to these babies?? Im confused
@bitasuite Congrats. I´m learning at this exact moment, my daughter 6 months old started eating this week, but she does not want to eat the mashed fruits and cries and just wants me to breastfeed her, I´m a little bit concern and I don´t know how to approach it, I´m afraid she can choke herself with a piece of food.
Same issue I have faced, my lo is of same age but I would say keep trying dn forcefeed give thm time thy will take slowly, I am trying both puree and blw.
Skylark , EXACTLY!! Omg, your like the smartest person on here!! This is SERIOUSLY just a stupid FAD, a TREND!! These parents are so ignorant that i just want to smack some sense into them!! It wont be so damn CUTE when their baby is choking and can't cough or puke it up!! I hope THEN they will all feel like a horses ASS!!!!!!!!!
Iamsunshine61178 , you are very right!! Breastmilk IS the only thing that a 4 month old should be eating!! These parents are complete morons and need slapped!!!
No, after three months they can have solid food, supplemented by breast milk or formula til they are a year old. Milk is necessary, but they can have other things in addition to it. Please, consult the health department or a pediatrician on this.
@TheGambit1982 breastfed babies don't need extra iron if they only drink breastmilk. It's only when you introduce solids that iron absorption becomes more difficult. Ma
@marianalass123 honey that is 3 at 3 months and towards the end of their 3 months their gut changes but instead of sayin feed them towards the end they say 4-6 months and what other people do with their kids is their choice
OMG 😱 Solis food to 5 month baby. Hw can they do that with baby? Y they are so hurry to teach her all? Let her grow by age. She will eat herself by hand in right age. Y these kind of parents wana baby when they have time to feed her properly
If you put a puppy in front of her she would put it in her mouth it doesn't mean she is trying to eat it. She can't sit up on her own nor does she have the motor skills to even pick up the food on her own. If she has an allergic reaction you wouldn't even know what it was to because you are introducing multiple foods at one time. If she survives your protocol it will be despite this lame movement.
the advice is on average but each baby is slightly different - some really are ready earlier. well done trusting your instincts, she looks a happy little miss!
My son is only just 4 months old and has the same, if not better hand eye co-ordination....not all babies are the same...what reason would they have to lie about the age of their baby?!
Wow. Some of you in this comment section are absolute dense. This is not a fad, this is teaching your child how to be a person. 🤦🏼♀️ smh.

Bs. A baby can choke on anything. Hope over this last decade u haven't been spreading your ignorance
She can't even sit by herself but was given that big chunk of brocli to eat
Parents are clueless these days! Wondering what kinds of food allergies she’s going to have because of this!
That's insane. She probably doesn't even have teeth yet. WTH???

She seems to be enjoying herself quite a lot. Already chewing. Looking at daddy for approval 😀
beautiful baby !!! she is so adorable enjoying that meal.

Video Smasher 2112 i think 3 month old is so early to wean....wait til 4-6 month old😊😊😊
Ohhh sorry ur comment was 6 years ago😆😆😆😆
E dove siete in un porcile???
Far too young - why do parents think it's clever for a child to suck on food they can't even chew!!
@Frenchblue8 so sorry to hear of your story, brave of u to share to save others, I don't understand why things that are choking hazards are given to these babies?? Im confused

A lot of judgement on BLW. I don’t blame them. They’re stuck on traditional feeding and they see any other methods dangerous.
Prea mica!!!! Nici nu poate sa stea bine in fundulet🙈
VERY cute baby girl!!! Too tiny to try and eat that huge piece of broccoli though.
It looks that she's too young for that. Doesn't show she want solid food. And she can't sit yeat.
Не рано ли давать ребенку такие овощи? Хорошо пюрешки
something perverted about these parents watching their child struggle to eat and not choke. I think it's obscene, and slightly mental.
Best Ever ......do some research....how can u say that without knowledge of BLW?
That's the whole point, I HAVE done extensive research. BLW is a dangerous fad. Ask any qualified pediatrician.
Skylark , EXACTLY!! Omg, your like the smartest person on here!! This is SERIOUSLY just a stupid FAD, a TREND!! These parents are so ignorant that i just want to smack some sense into them!! It wont be so damn CUTE when their baby is choking and can't cough or puke it up!! I hope THEN they will all feel like a horses ASS!!!!!!!!!
Dallo in affido
Lily don’t wanna broccoli 🥦
Baby girl must be very brave...good job little one😊😊😊
Jeddah Mondero it’s forced on her and she is too young
Please tell me this Infant isn't eating solid foods at 4 months old!??
Breast milk is the ONLY thing they should have before 12 months of age.
Iamsunshine61178 they can have solids 4-6 mos....later than 6 mos can led to nutritional deficiency😊😊😊
Iamsunshine61178 , you are very right!! Breastmilk IS the only thing that a 4 month old should be eating!! These parents are complete morons and need slapped!!!
Bullsjit
Baby can start solid at 4-6 months. Bs they can only drink milk first 12 months.
No, after three months they can have solid food, supplemented by breast milk or formula til they are a year old. Milk is necessary, but they can have other things in addition to it. Please, consult the health department or a pediatrician on this.
Baby is too young, to be trying to eat large pieces of food. Does she have teeth to chew.
@TheGambit1982 breastfed babies don't need extra iron if they only drink breastmilk. It's only when you introduce solids that iron absorption becomes more difficult. Ma
@marianalass123 honey that is 3 at 3 months and towards the end of their 3 months their gut changes but instead of sayin feed them towards the end they say 4-6 months and what other people do with their kids is their choice

Oh Lord. Whyyy?
She is so small.
oh my can we say heimlich manuver?
OMG 😱 Solis food to 5 month baby. Hw can they do that with baby? Y they are so hurry to teach her all? Let her grow by age. She will eat herself by hand in right age. Y these kind of parents wana baby when they have time to feed her properly
4 month?? too fast for eat.
Crazy!!!! Everyone needs educated. Not good
Broccoli with no teeth… smh!
If you put a puppy in front of her she would put it in her mouth it doesn't mean she is trying to eat it. She can't sit up on her own nor does she have the motor skills to even pick up the food on her own.

JmeSamano1 , and that's all this is, a LAME MOVEMENT!! You are very smart, unlike these moron parents!!!
das ist doch kein Essen für so ein kleines Kind...
Karin Braune Und wieso denn nicht? Müssen wirklich Babys mit klebrigem und fadem Brei gestopft werden?
She just remembered she doesn’t have teeth…dang it!
the advice is on average but each baby is slightly different - some really are ready earlier. well done trusting your instincts, she looks a happy little miss!
@marianalass123 k cool ? did they ask for your advice MANY , MANY parents use BLW and nothing goes wrong.
I think this baby led feeding is dangerous.
Educate yourself on Baby Led Weaning before you comment.
Laura S. Her gut hasn’t sealed and she’s not showing signs of readiness
Looks like she is chewing already
I didn't see her actually eat anything, she spit it all out.
Is baby at risk of choking?
She's not even eating it!!
4 months old??? Ya right
💗💗💗💗💗💗
Poor baby...its just too small to eat those food.
This is pure wastage of foods
My son is only just 4 months old and has the same, if not better hand eye co-ordination....not all babies are the same...what reason would they have to lie about the age of their baby?!
4ヶ月の子にこんな物食べさせてバカじゃない😤
Was für eine Dreckerei
