5 months old extremely interested in food

Carrie

We are planning on doing baby led weaning but not until at least the recommended 6 months.

But she is like super interested and opening her mouth leaning in toward what I’m eating and keep grabbing my drink cups and pulling to her mouth. 😂 I feel like its kind of cruel, like we’re teasing her.

I 100% know she would pick up a piece of food and put it straight in her mouth if I let her.

She’s 5 months old tomorrow. I obviously want to wait for the 6 months for several reasons and recommendations by WHO and AAP and her Pediatrician, I just don’t know if we should continue to let her watch us eat or try to not do it in front of her? I don’t want to tempt her when she can’t have any yet
