baby led weaning
Infant self-feeding method
Baby led weaning is an approach to introducing solid foods where infants feed themselves from the start rather than being spoon-fed purees.
The baby is offered soft finger foods and allowed to explore eating at their own pace: We started baby led weaning at six months with steamed carrots and banana.
The method emphasizes self-regulation and motor skill development.
