Baby Led Weaning

This weekend I was enlighted a bit about Baby Led Weaning. Immediately I thought after hearing it from another mother, that her baby was weaning itself from breastfeeding. Nope. I had to pretend I knew what she was talking about and nod and say, "uh, huh." Aparently Baby Led Weaning is when the baby no longer wants that mushed up food and wants to feed themself. Whew!!! That explains Natalie. 

Natalie has decided many meals in a row that she prefers what we are eating and will do it herself. She will open up for a yummy spoon full of homemade apple sauce, but not mashed veggies!

Now I am having to be even more creative. You shouldn't give babies food that have added sugar or salt. A little more difficult, so I guess we may be eating as a family a little more bland foods. 

Off to the market I go! Gotta plan for more appropriate Nattie meals. 

Thanks for checking in,
