How to introduce bread?! 😭

Question

I’m trying to do baby led weaning. He loves veggies and fruits, yogurt and eggs, and even chicken and salmon. But I’m so SCARED to give him bread! I read a story once about a baby eating a piece of muffin and it got stuck. How do you feed your baby bread? Do you cut it in long strips? I know I’m supposed to cut the crust off...do I make it softer by dipping it? Any advice will help I need to get over haha

Answer

I toast it and give it to him crust and all. I cut it into strips because he throws everything on the floor where it gets cat fur on it so I give him one piece at a time. And I usually put peanut butter on it. My baby doesn’t eat much but he loves bread.

Answer

Half a slice of organic whole wheat bread toasted slightly. Smeared peanut butter across half of it and slice baton style , I like to leave a bit dry so he doesn’t get  totally sticky. He likes to suck it off then chew the bread. Been doin it since 6 months

Answer

Make sure the bread you use doesn’t contain honey or large seeds. I would start with organic whole wheat bread and lightly toast it. Cut it into strips about the width of your pinky finger. Spread a thin layer of smashed avocado, peanut butter, almond butter, etc. You can also make baby pancakes that have a soft bread like texture. 2 eggs, 1 banana and some organic oats in a blender and cook them like regular pancakes. Cut them into strips too.

Answer

We toast it first

Answer

I toast it a little and cut into finger length strips. She usually has peanut butter toast for breakfast or sometimes I use the purées we have left to put on it as a spread.

Answer

I'm gonna be honest, that story comes to mind every so often even though my baby has had bread multiple times and I know that he can handle it. It's scary! You honestly never know what can happen! I just try to make it bite size that I know he can chew, and watch him while eating. And as a mother, know what you can do if your child does happen to choke on a food!

Answer

I toast it. We used to do strips of it but now we cut it into smaller pieces because she has her pincer grasp down

Answer

I am honestly terrified too. I have only given her bread when I am eating jt myself and I give her small pieces..
