Sorry. Another question for BLW's

[looloo711]

So my DD is 19 weeks and I really wanted to do BLW. But this week whilst seeing CHN she said to start solids. I told her I wanted to wait till 6 months and she said she likes to see them on solids by 24 weeks. So still a few weeks till then.
But my question is did anyone start just rice cereal for one meal in the morning until 6 months then move on to finger food?
She ia very interested in food so I think she would take to mush.
I'm waiting on the book to arrive for further reading.
Thanks

Wait for the book :) it will make so much sense and you will want to wait , honestly there is no need to rush and waiting until 26 weeks is only 2 more weeks than she recommended, your baby will be ready for BLW when she can sit up by herself, lose the tongue thrust and she can put food in her own mouth
What I started doing at about 24 weeks was making sure DS sat with us in his high chair at meal times and gave him a spoon and fork to play with with his sippy cup of water
Again, any spoon feeding is not really the BLW way but you do what feels comfortable for you and your baby , the book will tell you more!

No, don't give rice cereal. It's foul.

My son was ready because he grabbed food from my hand.
