From the authors of the original Baby-Led Weaning Cookbook. Gill Rapley and Tracey Murkett are the creators of baby-led weaning (BLW), a commonsense way to introduce your baby to solid foods. There's no need to struggle with purÔees and spoon-feeding. Instead, Baby can explore the same foods you enjoy - how they feel, smell, and taste; how to grasp them and chew them - all at his or her own pace. Includes 99 all-new recipes, many suited for families of 4 or more. Plus, a review of the the benefits of BLW: It's convenient: the whole family eats the same meal together. No one puts Baby in the corner. It helps Baby learn: BLW builds motor skills, coordination, and confidence. It promotes lifelong health: By teaching Baby to love a variety of foods and to gauge fullness, BLW helps prevent picky eating, and overeating, later on. Tracey Murkett is a journalist and a volunteer mother-to-mother breastfeeding helper. She lives in London. Gill Rapley, PhD, the pioneering champion of baby-led weaning, has been a midwife, lactation consultant, and breastfeeding counselor. She lives in Kent, England.
