Recently, a friend gave me a really well-written and informative book all about baby-led weaning. Immediately, I felt like a failure, because for the past couple months, Iâd been giving my eight-month-old pureed baby food. Worse, I didnât even make it myself.
My friend didnât intend to mom-shame me. She practiced baby-led weaning, and she just wanted to share an awesome book that had helped her tremendously. Of course, Iâd heard of baby-led weaning, and Iâd even tried itâonce. But after watching my son gag on a piece of banana, I was too scared to try it again.
