Ready for Solids?

Von will be turning 6 months next week. Yey! We're so excited to introduce him to solid feeding and we've decided to try Baby Led Weaning (BLW). So what is BLW? It's simply letting your baby feed himself with age appropriate foods, having him lead his way into food (what he wants to eat, how much he wants to eat). You can read more about BLW here. [*Will hopefully make a separate post on BLW]

Our little boss is ready to eat solids. He's 6 months. He can sit on his own and has good head and neck control. He seem interested every time he sees us eating.

J and I am ready to introduce solids to Von. I've been reading articles on age appropriate foods, food preparation and ways to introduce food. J assured me that he knows how to perform first aid on a choking baby (just in case). [Found this article with video: Do-First-Aid-on-a-Choking-Baby]

Von's high chair is ready. Bought this at a bargain price from cirads sulitbabyshop.

Von's waterproof bibs/aprons are ready. Bought both from Baby Luxe Co. at a discounted price (P500 off regular price of P1060) thanks to Multiply's Discount Frenzy.

As for the other items, will have them ready in the next few days. So I guess we're almost set. I just hope I can manage to keep a daily log of our BLW journey.
