Wow, is it just me I never heard of this before today until I came across it on the Internet. It basically means once your child turns 6 months instead of feeding them pureed food give them small finger foods of whatever you are eating and let them feed themselves. I love this idea, I think with Rory I might try it and see how it works out. We gave Declan what we were eating I think at about 7 or 8 months and once he had it he refused pureed foods, who could blame him? So, after that I pretty much gave him what we had and just made sure we were eating at least one thing I thought he could eat. Being the youngest I bet Rory will want to start eating our food anyways, plus I could actually eat instead of feeding him first. He's 5 months now and I have been giving him rice cereal, but that's about it so far. Once he turns 6 months I'm going to give this a try. Have any moms out there tried this? If so let me know how it worked out. If you want more information about it here is the site Baby Led Weaning. Once I try it I will let you know how it works out for us:)
