Summary: Baby-led Weaning: Helping your baby to love good food
Comment: We were already 'Baby Led Weaner's and were waiting for the book as we were still relatively new to the concept. It was worth the wait! It has given us loads of confidence. Money well spent!
Customer Rating:
Summary: Excellent
Comment: I was recommended this book and also Gill's CD and it opened by eyes to a new way of doing things. Many of my friends had started weaning as early as 17 weeks with baby rice but it didn't appeal to me. One month in and my baby boy loves feeding himself - the only downfall is that he wants to "help" me when I feed him things like yougurt or if I need to give him medicine and so it goes everywhere but this is all part of the fun!
Over Christmas, both Grannies mentioned that they were worried about the amount of food my boy was eating which made me question what we are doing - one quick re-read of certain parts of the book put my mind back to rest!
If you are interested in a different way of weaning then this is an excellent place to start. As mentioned in other reviews, however, there are no recipes, just ideas.

Summary: So much more natural than spooning in purees all the time!!
Comment: What a fantastic book! I wish I had it 5 years ago when I was weaning my eldest. My little one didn't like being spoon fed so I explored other options and came across baby-led weaning on the internet. A complete lifesaver for me and for her. She loves feeding herself and it has saved me so much time and energy. Now when we go out she will eat almost anything and her manual dexterity is excellent.
I was most worried about the choking and gagging but it is amazing how well babies can cope when you let them lead the way. I feel confident that baby-led weaning will really help my little one to be led by her appetite as she gets older, rather than led by someone spooning mush into her until the bowl is empty.
I highly recommend this book to any new parents and to any parents whose babies are not keen on being spoon fed. Try it (and feel free to combine it with a bit of spoon-feeding too, if that makes you more comfortable!)
Customer Rating:
Summary: A common sense approach
Comment: I am just starting to wean my daughter who is 5 & 1/2 months old. I was unsure about weaning, until I found this book; it gives great advice and is all you will need for a raft of information. It doesn't give recipes like some other weaning books but it doesn't need to because your baby doesn't need 'Special' foods.
Save yourself some money this is the only book on weaning you will need.
It is reassurance for anyone who is unsure about following a practice that is in reality the most natural and positive approach to weaning.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Really helpful, and a quick read for busy parents
Comment: I read this when my 2nd child was 6 months and about to start food. With my first child I followed all the puree rules, and consequently he is a terrible eater at 3 years old. Baby led weaning is a much better approach in my opinion. Plus its really really easy. Takes all the pressure off. Weaning is actually fun this time round. Read this if you are about to wean your baby on to food. It makes a very sensible case!
