Giving you a peek on our daily life as we continue to pursue our baby led weaning journey in the Philippines with our two younger children.
We originally shared this post in our Instagram account but decided to publish it in our website as well since we publish here recipes and meal ideas for Pinoy babies and toddlers.
Baby led weaning journey in the Philippines
Magandang tanghalian po from the little guy! Breaded porkchop, apple slices and rice for our little familia’s Tuesday lunch.
My bunso is trying his best to be so independent so kahit feling ko dapat counted na as squats ang pagpupulot ko ng kanin at ulam na nahuhulog sa ilalim ng lamesa, go parin tayo sa pag BLW.
I know it is really bad to compare kids pero Shobe and little guy are more independent and not much of a picky eater compared to Achie who was weaned the traditional way (pureed food and spoon fed), and nasanay na iba food nya at hinahabol ko ng subo. Grabe ang stress ko talaga sa pagpapakain kay achie that time and as a first time mom, i tried my best to find ways to make food introduction to my second child Shobe better so she would have healthier eating habits.
Until i stumbled upon the concept of baby led weaning. If you have long been a reader of the website, you would see the food adventures of my younger two, and im just so happy I pursued BLW for both of them.
Shobe and little guy both know that when it is eating time, it is eating time and that they should try the food that is on their plate. Napakakalat man nila kumain, super fulfilling to see that they try their best to feed themselves, and actually eat what is on the table. Chamba man o hindi that BLW worked for these younger two, im just happy that I stuck with it amid the kalat and other kakulitan and kapagudan that come with it.
So there goes our BLW story. If you are interested to learn more about BLW plus samples and BLW meal ideas that are feasible in the Pinoy setting, doable on a daily basis (kahit ng yayaless mom of three na gaya ko), affordable and nutritious, please check out our pinoy BLW album over at Facebook with close to 200 baby and toddler food recipes and ideas.
