Why I Won't Introduce Solids Any Other Way | TOP 10 FIRST FOODS FOR BABY | Baby Led Weaning

  • Curious about Baby Led Weaning? In this video, I’m sharing my experiences using BLW for introducing solids and why I never use puree baby food. I’m also sharing my favorite first foods for baby.
    Foods before one are just for fun but it’s also the perfect time to prime baby’s palate. The first baby led weaning foods I love are full of nutrition that babies love!
    Now, a big thing parents are concerned about when considering solid baby food over spoon feeding purees is baby choking. In this video we talk about gagging vs choking and how gagging is a very common and protective response when babies first start to eat.
    Enjoy this video about baby led weaning benefits and how to do it with your little one!

    I started baby led weaning between 6-7 months and it was the best thing I did! My baby is now 16 months old and pretty much eats everything…. She loves all different meats and seafoods, Greek yogurt, and of course fruits. She just now started eating a little cheese again after refusing it for a few months, and she’s hesitant with the green veggies but last night she ate so much sliced green bell pepper and cucumber, It made me so happy. She only has 4 teeth but chews everything well and we’ve never had any near chocking experiences.

    • @itsgeorgianot
      @itsgeorgianot Рік тому +7

      @@bangaliwala She was around 9 months old when she really started eating a more substantial amount of food with baby led weaning, like enough to where I didn’t need to give her purées. (I supplemented with puréed if i felt like she needed more and was she breast fed at the same time). Before 9 months she was playing around with the food a lot, squishing it, feeling it, chewing and spitting it out, etc. Around 9 months something just clicked for her. I was following another baby on Instagram that was her age and eating A LOT more than her earlier on. So I also questioned why my baby wasn’t eating in the same way. But it just goes to show every baby is different and if you just keep consistent with something you should get the results you’re hoping for 😊

      Soup is TOUGH! When my little was younger, I would give her a cracker or strips of toast to dip in the soup and also gave her a spoon to play with. She's just recently figured out how to eat with the spoon (at 20 months), but definitely still spills a ton! Thicker soups are easier, like creamy soups with chunks of potatoes or carrots that she can pick up with her hands if need be.

    My baby was born 4 lbs 2oz. Her pediatrician had her on formula, purées and oatmeal until her first birthday. I didn’t have any idea I would be so scared about choking. Enough to where I lose sleep and tear up thinking about giving her something she can choke on. She is eating the puffs that dissolve, mashed up bananas, anvocados and today I gave her cheerios. I’ve watched multiple videos of moms feeling different sized foods. I’m confused if I cut things up small, or bigger so she can takes bites. I’ve seen both. Giving her chicken freaks me out for choking!!!

    Also, what is your advice about water? I’ve heard horror stories about introducing water too soon and it destroying their digestive system for life. So should it be like 2oz a day or more?

    I just want to add that if your baby is not gaining appropriate weight by 5 months. They will tell you to give them either the whole grain cereal or the rice cereal . That's what I had to do with my daughter because she was still eating every 2 hours at 5 months and wasn't gaining enough wait.

      WHO now advises to wait until 6 months. There were links found to obesity and other health issues later in life if babies start on solids too soon. But as with everything else, do what you think is right for your child

      No with 4 months the digestive system is not quite there yet. 180 days after estimated birthdate is what I been told. That would be 6 months if baby was not born earlier before due date.
      But your comment is 4 months ago so I assume you have started by now. My daughter is 9 months now, hope you and family are doing well!

    I agree with everything you've said except the boiled chicken- reasoning is, that boiling removes the most nutrients from food of all cooking methods.
    Think about boiling veg for instance- all that green tinted water left behind is FULL of nutrients youve missed out on, at that point you may as well drink the water too. Same goes for chicken, all that protein and all those minerals are left in the water, may as well make a soup from it. For baby, instead try a roast chook or a charcoal chook- still soft and malleable, but it's kept all it's nutrients whilst cooking!
    Theres plenty of research papers on this topic if you have a google!! 👍🏻

    Very interested in this topic, and your video came out at just the right time! My baby is 4 months old and I’ve been doing a bit of research on starting solids. One question about allergens: my son hasn’t shown any signs of having allergies from breastfeeding, but my husband has some nut allergies and had other allergies as a kid. Is that a reason to be cautious of those foods with my son, or do allergies not tend to be passed down that way? Thanks!

    • @raisaburdak
      @raisaburdak Рік тому

      It could be hereditary and could be not. Allergies change every 7 years so something you might’ve not been allergic to 7 years ago, could be allergic to it now. That’s why I don’t think it’s hereditary.
      Also I heard from my sister and read online that it’s a good idea to go slow with introducing foods to your baby, that way if they have an allergic reaction, you’d be able to pinpoint what it’s most likely from, instead of if you’d give different foods too quickly, you’ll have a hard time figuring out what food the allergic reaction originated from 🤍

    Is BLW appropriate if my baby does not like to drink her milk and is never hungry? She can spend four or five hours without eating and she is happy. And if she eats, she only takes two ounces. She is five months and two weeks old. I am desperate because she barely drinks her bottle.

    When baby (or anyone!) is trying to caughing to get food out, DO NOT TAP in the back. In CPR courses, it's the first thing we learn.

    Baby led weaning for our family came naturally and our baby is far more advanced than all the other babies that were born around the same time as her even though she was the youngest. It is noticable at a distance how much aware and in control of her environment she is.
    Of course every parent does things differently but for us it has worked wonders and we are so proud of our little munchkin.

    During my last hospital visit, doctor advised for elective c sec just to ensure there are no miss happens. Although he had left option for us but things like what if baby eats meconium or umbilical cord circling neck , scares me.

      If you think about it they get there front teeth first and don’t get there back teeth until they are around 2! so they are just using there gums to mush there food, the food is soft enough to be mushed with there gums until it turns into a “purée” type texture in there mouth! that way they won’t choke!
      Don’t use hard foods such as carrots or apples use the food that she mentioned and your baby should be fine :)

    the pancreas is not developed enough to have big chunks of food. The food should be puréed so it’s less hard on their undeveloped digestive system. So I think puréed food is healthier and less risky
