What My 8 Month Old Eats in a Day // (Mostly) Baby Led Weaning

[@sophieackermann]

As a first time mom, this was very helpful to me! My husband and I have been feeling a little bit stressed because our daughter is not interested in eating her solids yet (6.5 months), she’s mostly playing with it. So to see the amount you give to Anne versus what she actually ate made me feel so much better! Thank you for your content. 💗

Same here! Seeing a mom of 4 still kind of 'struggling' with solids with her 8 month old made me not give up BLW. It's a beautiful journey in the end and totally worth it!

Please make more videos like this. My daughter is also 8 mos and I have been learning a lot from you. I discovered your channel when I was pregnant and I find your videos very therapeutic. I love your calm and point of view especially with baby led weaning and sleep training. You help me become less anxious as a mom of two figuring things out. Thank you ❤

Loved the video!!! Wow kids are so different, man!! My daughter was just like this. At 9 months she was still playing and exploring with food, getting the majority of her calories from milk. She gave up the milk and started to rely only on solid foods at 18 month old! My boy noooow he just self-weaned at 9.5 months because he eats sooo much solid food!! He's just no interested in nursing anymore!Just shows how different kids are. Hope my comment is helpful to some moms that are worried about their child feeding jouney.❤

I vote yes for more content like this! I’m way past that stage in my life, but it’s so sweet to see ☺️

[@andreawiegman1492]

I’m just getting to baby food my baby will be 6 months on the 23d of may

[@Syl_Lac]

@@andreawiegman1492 how sweet! Enjoy these special years. They go by so very fast.

[@catdt8920]

Thank yoy for showing us the leftovers! I love how realistic this is but still encouraging of building a baby's flavor palate.

[@AnnaliseTull]

Yes please! More videos like this would be great. We also have an 8 month old ☺️

[@MegaTelenovela]

This was so helpful Delilah. My daughter is 2 and most of her food ends up on the floor. I'm glad you showed how you offered your daughter's food. Please do more videos of baby feeding! I was so stressed, still am with feeding my toddler and this gave me so much more confidence. I will buy the baby led weaning cookbook you mentioned in previous videos. Do you modify the food let's say beef mince depending if you baby has teeth or not? My husband would tell me to overcook the rice so my daughter won't choke or get constipated when she was 8 months old. Mind you, she started teething at 14 months.

[@CharlottesWright]

I absolutely love the meal-centered videos, I'm constantly out of ideas & I just watched & rewatched your baby led weaning video with your 8mo boy at the time, to get ideas for my 1st baby

[@saraelizabeth155]

Totally off topic but I can't help but say how fantastic your hair looks!

[@hannahtiem]

Yes, please do more like these! Need more ideas and encouragement starting 7 month old on solids. 4th baby, but still find it challenging.

[@isabellalacy9901]

Ahh Delilah!! I love this so much and I am so obsessed with your content! Thank you for being such an inspiration to me and being such a light! Ilysm and I hope you’re having an amazing day 💕

[@jessibalestrieri8751]

Your hair looks amazing in the intro! ❤

[@20SymoneHenvey09]

Do you have a recipe for the fruit lax spread? Definitely want to make that for my little ones freezer stash pancakes :)

[@kiarataylor8380]

In her baby food prep video

[@samwasson19]

My favorite easy go-to meal is Instant pot quinoa taco bowl!

[@KatherineDeGroot]

Love!!! We have also done BLW for the most part with our kiddos. It's so fun to watch them explore and begin to participate in mealtimes.

[@sarapnina]

Thank you for this video! I just missed seeing Annies face or seeing her eat the food. 😅

[@ajoyfullsound]

Yes would love more like this. My baby is no where near ready to eat solids almost three months old, but I want to do baby led weaning with him. This is my first child so I'm learning all I can!

[@lindsey1052]

Always happy to see you have uploaded a video ❤ sending you all so much love ❤️

[@tunezntales14]

i love how our babies are the same age and this video came at the perfect time 😂😂😂

[@laurahimesekai]

Our kids is a bit apart only in birth. And today I gave him first strawberry but i did cut them pieces. He loved it. I also wanted to find jam for him.

[@kimberlymerritt8675]

yes, more please I am a new mom and my daughter is the exact same age. Thank you for sharing

[@Mickaelcrob73]

Beautiful Family !🌸

[@megancox9549]

Great to see this as an example.

[@lauradyer9734]

And where did you get that baby mesh feeder? I am just wondering the best products to get for baby.

[@helenrhall]

Hi Delilah, do you have any recipe ideas for leftover puree foods? My daughter doesn't like being spoon fed, she much prefers baby led weaning and I have some fruit and some vegetable purées I need to somehow use?

[@mariesandovalbeau]

This also happened to me 🥲 I offered them on top of a sliced toast, and as a dipping sauce for other veggies and my baby ate them. Hope it helps! 💗

[@laurenharris9510]

My baby doesn't love being spoon-fed either! I often put them in the little food pouches so he can hold them and eat them that way. It's messy, but it works!

[@ilonadevries18]

Depending on which food they are you can use them in baking! Like apple sauce, pumkinpurree, zucchini are all perfect for bananenbread or mufffins. Or let them defrost and stir through oatmeal :)

[@bonjyb]

Fruit purées are nice mixed in with porridge or in plain yoghurt . Or, if you can keep them for another few months if it’s in a sachet (also assuming you’re weaning around 6 months or so) then they may be interested in trying to use the spoon themselves around 1 year anyway, if not before if you have a more independent- minded child!

[@christengardner4780]

Cam you believe we are almost to 1 year mark girly. So sad as it gets closer

[@archanamallikarjun5260]

Hello, Delilah. I wanted to let you know that I watched your video on baby-led weaning and found it very helpful. I tried to start my baby on this method when she was 6 months old, but she didn't take to it very well. She is almost 7 months old now and I was wondering at what age you started baby-led weaning?

[@hannahroseloftus97]

I know you are asking Delilah but from someone who has done it twice, my experience was I tried it with my first baby at exactly 6 months and they took a long time to get into it, didn’t actually eat food until I want to say 9-10 months, more payed with it. I waited until 7-8 months with my second child and it didn’t take them as long but still they mostly just played with it but they did pick it up faster than my first. My first was very gaggy and couldn’t figure out chewy motion for a while. In hind site I don’t think they were ready at all. All you can do is go off your instincts and baby’s cues, it really is more for fun and experience before 1 as milk is their main source of nutrients ☺️

[@libberached9971]

I want this for a 2/3 year old!

[@Ej_fountain]

When doing research I found that maple syrup can cause botulism and should be treated like honey and not given till 1? Have you researched it if so I'd love to know where you got your info cause I'd love to also read it if not all good

[@creativereindeer]

Yes please! 🎉

[@lauradyer9734]

Where did you get that baby bottle for her water?

[@sundrops5807]

This is very similar to what I offer my daughter. Cool!
