Great information that helped us start BLW. I preferred the cookbook though. The introduction chapter covers this book completely. Feb 17, 2021

I just ordered this and sounds like an amazing concept. I'm very anxious to give this a read May 05, 2020

Wanted to do BLW so read the book, which was extremely helpful. We never got over the fear of choking whenever babe would gag. This style just wasn't for us but would be good for others willing to try Jan 25, 2019

I lived by this book when I did BLW with my first baby. It's so helpful and just reassures that you're doing the right thing for your baby. There are great tips and makes the process easy Oct 21, 2018

I cannot recommend BLW enough: such a common-sense, low-stress way to introduce foods to baby. We did blw from the start, and everyone raves about what a great eater our 8 month old is. Mar 17, 2018

Fantastic concept that we subscribed to when introducing solids to my daughter. I couldn't imagine feeding purees after doing BLW. I highly recommend this method! I didn't bother with the recipes. Feb 04, 2018

This really helped me figure out baby led weaning. I didn't know much about it before this book, but I'm so glad I found it. We totally skipped purees without a problem. Oct 05, 2017

Skip all the purees and go right to solid foods. Worked great for our baby, and daycare loved it once they got over the shock. Apr 28, 2016

This book made solids SO EASY. I can't recommend it enough. Oct 31, 2014
Made complete sense and revolutionized my approach to introducing solids to my baby. I've never been happier or more amazed with a "parenting" book. May 21, 2014
My daughter never liked purees this was very helpful as an alternative. Feb 21, 2014
Useful tips though not profound. Oct 06, 2013
Highly recommended for parents who want to prevent fussy dinner times and fighting over the spoon. We love this method! Sep 30, 2013

We LOVED Baby-Led Weaning and I always recommend people read the book (though the book is 2x longer than it needs to be). There are also great blogs out there that offer BLW advice from real parents! Jul 06, 2014
