TIP: you only need to feed repeated foods for 3-5 days if its allergy food! Doing that for everything is super outdated and if you do the maths 6 months until they’re 1 is not enough time to do that! Make sure you don’t introduce allergy foods on day of injections, wait a week after until you do since babies immune is already taking a hit from immunisations you don’t wanna stress it out even more! :)
It took me almost the whole video to realise you’re saying “solids” and not “salads”
Ok? so you’re slow thanks for the info
Me too. Lol
Adorable baby. When my sons were babies, we did one food at a time. Cereals first, veggies next, then fruits.
She’s so cute! I love how she’s looking at you so intently in the beginning ❤️
Her reaction to broccoli 😂😂 she’s so precious! I can’t believe she’s already starting solids, time is flying !!
OMG, I’ve never seen a baby look so much like her mother! She’s a mini-me! (Of you.) This was great.
My 5 month old is just now starting solids. We’ve been doing purées, oatmeal and cereal but I do think she enjoys more when she can handle the food herself. This video is so helpful!
Thank you for sharing this. You can’t imagine how valuable the information is to other moms.
I’m a 6th time mom plus 14 foster babies. This baby is my 1st and only BLW baby. Thank you for the information!!
She seriously did SO good!! And you should be so proud of yourself! Also, I cracked up at the cantaloupe part when Jace seemed to pop up out of nowhere.
She’s so cute staring at you while you were talking 🥺 Thanks for documenting BLW, my son is 4mos old and I’m mentally preparing for when it’s that time
she did so well! she’s such a precious baby 🥺
Thank you! And yes I think she’s loving it so far!
This was so fun to watch!!!! I'm so excited to go through this phase again with my Quinn in a few months!!!
This was a very helpful video. I have been doing a lot of research about BLW and this is the most real video Iv seen. Thank you!
You are a super mom. & You really teaching new moms here easily.
Thank you for taking the time to go thru this. My son is 5 months old on Sunday and we are going to start solids soon. I appreciate the detail in this video. We went with purees for our daughter and want to do things a bit differently this time.
What a sweet precious baby 😍😍 we start our BLW journey in 3 weeks, can’t wait ☺️☺️
Loved the video! The plates listed below on the Amazon link were game changers for us with BLW 💕
I’m on my THIRD baby, and I’m NOW starting baby led weaning. Wow I heard about it but I was always so nervous. My baby just turned 6 months. Thanks for this video
Thanks so much for sharing this video.
I have two boys ( 10 and 7 years old) and now I have one little girl ( 5 months old) .
My pediatrician said I can start this month or next month when she will be 6 months old.
I decided to wait although she is ready.
I am 36 years old now, much more mature and confident mom than when I had my boys.
I am so excited to start the BLW with my baby girl.
Seriously I loooooved your video.
Thank you thank you thank you🥰🙏
Thanks for making this video! My baby is 5months. Never heard of BLW, so this is a helpful start! Definitely will do more research.
BTW, Aria is adorable and such a good baby!
Aria!! Shes so precious😇 this vid is perfect timing
I love the crinkled food idea!! 💡
So cute! I’m 37 weeks pregnant with my first and the thought of solids have always scared me! I’ve heard of BLW but it’s so helpful to watch the process. Thanks for sharing this!😁
You can do it!
You got this girl! And take it one step at a time 😉 first focus on the breastfeeding stage and before you know it your baby will be ready for solids 🥰❤️
How sweet! That broccoli face is the best
I LOVE that little cup! It's so cute. A trick though, from working many years in daycare nurseries : More water in the cup (like at least half way) is easier because it reaches the mouth quicker and doesn't require as much coordination and precision in handling the cup, but she is so little that right now it's not even quite relevant yet
Oh GREAT TRICK! Thank you so much I’ll try that out!
You never give babies under a year old, water.
PEDS RN
This video has been so helpful! I have a 5 month old, & she’s my first so I had no clue where to start 😅 now I do! Thank you 💕
Oh glad I could help a bit!! Best of luck!
She is a beauty! I just started this week with my baby too!
Ahhh my son will be 6 months in 6 days and I am super stoked to begin blw! Sweet potato was my plan for his first food too.
She’s so cute trying to talk ❤
We’re going to be entering this phase in a couple months, so thank you for sharing this! It was very informational and helps give me ideas of what we can give our baby and how.
Awesome so glad I could help a bit!! Good luck!
Best video I have seen about it!
With baby led weaning you can actually give her the spoon and let her feed herself! Will get messy but eventually helps to teach them how to use a spoon. You can also put apple sauce or peanut butter on little pieces of bread (without salt) in Europe with have those organic ones made of chestnut that are really good.
Loved this! My son turns 6 months next week and watching as many BLW as I can 😅
I’ve enjoyed your videos for awhile and have to say your content is more enjoyable now than when Jase was a baby because of things you’ve pointed out yourself. You’re more relaxed. This isn’t criticism because I liked your content then; but it’s even better now. Even as a vlogger alone, your more laid back approach is super fun to watch. Kudos and keep up the great work!
Thanks so much!! Truly appreciate your honesty and encouragement! I do feel way more myself and comfortable in front of a camera now than I did then, takes time I guess!
Her trying to say AVOCADO😍and Jace talking so much 😍
Aww your kids look so much alike! They are both beautiful. Can''t believe she is 6 months old already 🥺
Thank you! And seriously I can’t believe it either! Already thinking about her first birthday theme 🥺
shes a REALLY good eater!!!
She is adorable!! I’m pregnant with my second baby and I can’t wait to have another little one 😍
Congrats mama
Thank you! I just gave my 6 month old a piece of avocado 🥑 and she chomped it down like a champ 💪🏼
This video is so cute! I love the looks the baby gives to food 😅❤
My baby is 5 months old and has started solids. We're doing a bit of a mix between BLW and feeding puree to her as she sometimes doesn't want to hold the food but she leans forward wanting to eat. I'm a first time mum and I feel super overwhelmed with introducing solids so watching this was very helpful!
Do u serve fruit puree warm.or cold? I am struggling feeding my 6 month old baby...he is very active , he was having the store bought fruit puree when 5 month and suddenly now he doesn't seem to be interested to eat and just babble and lay down
@@frenchvanilla7480 I served it warm. I would always sit with my baby when she first started eating solids and I could eat in front of her so she could mimmick what I was doing. Maybe try that?
@AliciaQuality what solids did u serve her?
@frenchvanilla7480 her first solids were simple cooked and pureed veggies; carrot, zucchini, broccoli etc. I tried to bot serve pureed fruit too often as it's mostly sugar.
I also let her touch all the food with her hands while I fed her with a spoon, I even let her use the spoon. I found it helped her to be comfortable with what she was eating.
It can be very stressful but try and take it one meal at a time - there is no time limit on how long it takes to eat and if your baby is done after a few mouthfuls, that's ok too.
So cute! 😊
My baby is 6months next month🎉, thanks for the video❤
She is adorable!😍
This was so helpful! Thank you ❤
She is doing amazing! So are you, Nicole! Ricky Zoom!
She really did great. ❤
I did something similar and my son is a very good eater. He is 21 months now and eats just about anything. Every child gets a little picky but I have less issues with him than most of the other moms I see. I would even make purees and put some on the tray to play with. Or puree stew and put chunks on his tray and he would play with the chunks and eat the puree from me. So he could experiment and while eating enough to develop a taste for it. It truly is a lot of work though, it was so messy and it was exhausting but he is a clean eater now and sits at the table. So I think the hard work is worth it. Good pay off.
I agree it’s a lot of work!! Truly takes patience and creativity to make sure they are getting a variety of different foods!
Your baby girl is the cutest😍 Thank you for taking the time to share your experience because it gives us mom’s a better understanding and ideas of BLW. Question: did you, at any point before BLW, give baby Aria baby cereal to help her learn to swallow or did she go straight into BLW? I have a 5 month old and want to start BLW soon but I am unclear if I should have her practice swallowing by giving her rice cereal before jumping in?
Thanks for this video! Really helpful :)
Wow thank you for sharing! This was so fun to watch! ♥️ I tried BLW on my baby and it did not go well lol but this video definitely gave me a lot of hope! I’ll try again next month!
Thank you!! Aww hope it gets better! It can def be scary at times too with gagging!
Loved this vlog it’s beautiful
Your boy is such adorable and precious 💜
And i think he needs some more attention from you just like your baby girl .. no judgment just kind reminder
Such a good little eater!
Waw that's a good start!!
What a great video! Thank you!
Good job Ari! 💕
Yaaaay for this video ! My baby turns 3 months next week and can’t wait for BLW in a few months.
You’re gonna have so much fun! Be ready to get messy! Hehe
@@Nicolelelagreen I’m like you with the messes. I need to relax a little more. Maybe I should practice that for the next few Months 😂
Only clicked to see the cute baby 🥰 I'm pregnant with my second and loveeeed this age with my firstborn 😍
Thank you so much for this ! 🤍✨
I’m seeing more and more of you in Arya! See looks like her mama 🤍 I just loveeee her
Aww thank you!!
Great video. Much appreciated
she looks so cute
Such a cute and fun video! My baby started solids but I’m too scary to do your way so I’m doing purées for a little while 😅♥️♥️
Thank you for sharing!
aria trying to say avocado 🥺
Ahh I know! She also said “dada” the other day!!
Wow, she did amazing! You did well too!! I definitely had to chill just a bit when it came to blw with my son 😂 I stressed so much and now he is a picky eater 🥲
This video was so helpful!! Thank you so much and happy 1st birthday to Aria !!! My baby will be 6 months next week and I want to try BLW. I am a 3rd time mom but my older two are much older and I never heard of this with them. Thanks so much for your help, God bless ❤️
Where did you get that high chair i love it
The way she was watching you talk 🥹
Not sure if you know but starting solids has an app and it shows you how to serve literally any kinda fresh food and at what age. My 3rd time doing BLW and I am still learning things and still struggling with the mess. What helps me is just reminding myself that my baby is learning and it’s good for her.
Yeah I just found out about the app and gonna download! Thanks so much!
What’s the app
@@irinabraimah7912 it is called solid starts
The judgy broccoli face 🤣😍
This has come at a great time for me. I am a FTM and have just started my 6 month old on solids following BLW approach. But I can really relate to what you were saying about needing to be more "chill". I get really stressed watching her bite pieces and end up taking the food away because I'm scared it's not safe and she will choke. She also does things like grabs at the plate and bowl and tries to put the bowl in her mouth lol.
my son just turned 6 months this week and im the same way. i always take his food because i’m so concerned about him choking 😓
So much same..
I would like to know any seasoned mamas opinion on the seat. I got an up seat like the one in the video but I also have a high chair . I’m torn whether I should open the high chair or return it and only use the up seat
Precious girl!
Your baby girl is so cute 😊
My baby just plays in the food instead of eating it lol also her appetite has not been good some days. I think it is from teething. Your baby girl is so sweet and super smart
My eldest son’s middle name is Jace! Lol. My 7 month old literally plopped his hand into my bowl of soup, trying to steal some.😂 He loved it, but I’m nervous about giving him anything that isn’t blended…😅🤔 Cool to see that it seems safe! I can absolutely relate about it being difficult to let them get messy and just learn on their own, with my first I was so micromanaging that when I finally gave her a spoon to eat her own cereal at 3 years old, she was having a hard time keeping the spoon upright so the food doesn’t spill before getting to her mouth. My youngest is my last, and I want to try just letting him eat like this. I’m just glad he seems to love veggies! He seemed to like bananas, but when I blend them, not from the baby food container, and he’s not really into fruit yet. 🤔My other kids don’t really like veggies except for cucumbers, carrots, cabbage, and tomatoes.
Very helpful
What chair is that? So smart
With the cup training what type of water did you use? Does is matter with the brand of peanut butter
Thanks so much
I'm somewhat familiar with BLW, but it scares me. I have a 6 month old that just started solids and I am absolutely terrified of him choking so I'm starting with baby cereal and purees mixed with breast milk. I love letting my baby explore and learn on his own and he is getting really good at using a spoon, but I just sat through this whole video terrified she was going to suddenly take a huge bite and choke. It seems weird to me that this concern doesn't come up in the BLW videos I've seen so far.
I’m crying I’m so afraid of choking..doesn’t matter how much I try to prepare myself if it happens.. I’m also a terrible cook..nothing about preparing/serving food comes naturally to me and I have so much guilt I keep watching these videos for ideas and then forgetting and watching more
@@douxhealth-beauty3196 just letting you know you are not alone. I feel exactly the same, and I’m crying too. My son is almost 10 mos. I’m so scared of everything. Choking, I can’t cook, I hate messiness. I’m just so stressed out. I wish you the best of luck!
I do baby led weaning. Babies gag reflexes are more towards the front of their mouth when they are little
@@douxhealth-beauty3196 be brave , you ảre not alone, but i find out the baby can not swallow the big bite anyway , one time i buy baby snack for my 6 month old son and wondered if he got choke or something, i open one package take a bite and try to swallow, you know what , i can not swallow that small bite then it need to melt, or we need to chew untill we can swallow it . i also try to swallow the banana and find out it not that easy.
It’s also helpful to get all foods to the consistency of purée/mush if they were to squeeze in their hands through steaming etc
I like your choice of music lol
she is super cute😊
I think it’s so funny that in different countries fruit is known as a completely different thing to what it is in another, cantaloupe is known as rockmelon in Australia.
Whoa rockamelon is a WAY cooler name! Haha
Tried this then a fear of choking was unlocked. Definitely invested in a life vac
Number 1 tip: don't assume a baby doesn't like something, or won't learn to like something, just due to a facial expression. Even with my now 21 month old, I will continue giving him ALL foods and he goes in and out of eating certain things. I think that's the key to long-term success and avoiding picky eaters.
Great tip!! thank you
Omg the way she says aGucatooo🥑💖
How do you guys prevent choking with BLW?
Aw cuty ❤
Thanks for this!! My 3rd baby first to be baby led 😂🙈
OMG shes so cute Nicole xoxoxox
So does this approach skip the purée stage?
Cutie baby
OMG she is soooo cute, she has the most beautiful big eyes I can’t get over it lol!! I’m 34w expecting my first baby, I’m expecting a boy! I cannot wait ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Congratulations mama!!
Congrats! Being a boy mom is super fun! And yes her eyes are def from me hehe
She is so cute! I could watch her try food for hours. I love when she drank from the cup. I can’t wait to try with my little one in 2 months. ❤ I’m allergic to nuts, eggs, and fish so I’m terrified to try peanut butter.
Is water need to give after the food?
Where can I get that bib
How do you start BLW??? How do you introduce food??? Do you just put it infront of them??
In case of allergy or bad reaction, how can you tell what caused it if you introduce new meal every day?
