Does Baby Led Weaning help prevent picky eating?
Baby Led Weaning (BLW) is an approach to complementary feeding that involves offering infants the opportunity to self-feed finger foods and family foods, rather than being spoon-fed purees. The concept is based on the belief that infants can regulate their food intake and self-select nutritious foods 😋 if given the opportunity to explore and learn about different textures, colors, and tastes through their own experiences.
Some studies show that this approach may have potential benefits in terms of preventing picky eating.
