[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I also (I think wrongly) got the sense most people were doing BLW. I think Instagram was partly to blame for this understanding.  I asked my pediatrician about BLW a few weeks ago at our six month appointment and she advised against it for now.  She said she doesn't understand why it is all the rage when it creates a greater risk of chocking.  She recommended we stick with purees until baby shows more of an interest in self feeding.  This was relieving to me because I am also very stressed about chocking.  So much so that I'm contemplating getting one of those DeChocker or LifeVac things, though it seems sort of silly, so I haven't done so yet.  Feeding/eating seems like one of those things that all kids really do master eventually.  [b]It's not like there are a bunch of adults running around who don't know how to feed themselves.[/b]  So, if my kid is a few months slower on self-feeding, this seems like a pretty minor concern.  Definitely interested in other thoughts, though!  [/quote]
