I've been reading about "baby led weaning" and I think it makes a ton of sense. I want Laney to love food and experience different textures. Plus, I have always tried to do things with her in the most natural way possible. So, today I decided to let her have a piece of apple. I had read that babies will not choke if you let them pick it up and learn to chew it themselves. Don't freak out...she didn't choke. But mostly because my dad and I freaked out and I gave her the full finger sweep before she had a chance to choke. I'm going to try it again...with a banana or avocado. The apple was just too much...for me. She did fine by the way. She had no problems picking it up and was chewing little pieces off...then the pieces got bigger and I panicked.
