BLW Basics: Is My Baby Ready to Start Solid Foods?

#141: How do I know if my baby is ready to start solid foods with baby-led weaning? What are the reliable signs of readiness to self-feed that we should be looking out for as the baby approaches 6 months?

Listen to this episode to learn: What if my baby isn’t sitting independently at or around 6 months of age? How do I adjust my baby’s age if the baby was born preterm? Do all babies lose their tongue thrust reflex before 6 months of age? What if my baby is interested in mouthing objects or looking at food before 6 months of age?
