Baby led weaning vs. Spoon feeding

Baby-led weaning (BLW) involves allowing babies to self-feed with finger foods from the start of weaning, promoting independence and fine motor skills. In contrast, spoon-feeding typically involves parents feeding puréed foods to the baby, providing more control over the baby’s diet and portion sizes. Both methods aim to transition babies to solid foods, but BLW encourages exploration and self-regulation, while spoon-feeding ensures a more gradual introduction to various textures and tastes. 

You can choose to do a mixture of both or stick to one. There is no right or wrong method.
