purées to blw?

Question

ftm here and this might be a silly question but I have no idea lol. but can you go from purées to blw? or does it have to be just blw only ? we’ve been doing purées and wanted to know if when my LO hits 6 months we can do a more BLW approach to eating solids...

Answer

We always do a combination :) my daughter took better to purées and had no interest in BLW until about 10-11 months, but my son has loved real food from the start! For us combination is definitely the best option 👌

Answer

From what I’ve read on BLW you cannot do a combination of purées and BLW. Purées teaches you to swallow the food where BLW teaches you to chew. If you decide you want to BLW they say you should stop purées for two weeks prior. I read a lot about it with my first and ultimately decided it wasn’t for us.

Answer

I don’t know, but it’s what we’re going to attempt!

Answer

From what I have read is they recommend waiting 2 weeks before starting blw if you have done purées because at this point baby has learned to swallow instead of chew and you really want baby to learn how to chew first if you do BLW. I’m going all in with BLW next week, so excited!

Answer

I'd talk to your pediatrician, they can be super helpful with blw!!

Answer

Yeh I’m sure you can tho no real knowledge, also planning to do the same thing.
