I've just received my NHS weaning guide for DD2 (she's nearly 4 months) and it's BLW in all but name. The picture on the front cover is of a baby spoon feeding itself, the next photo is a baby chewing on a carrot stick, the next is having a slice of cucumber, you get the idea. Out of the 16 images of small babies eating only three are being spoon fed.
It's full of advice like 'wait till your child can sit up and is putting toys and other objects in their mouth' 'allow your baby to feed themself, using their fingers, as soon as they show an interest' 'give your baby a range of foods and textures to eat' 'don't force feed your baby' 'let your baby touch the food in the dish' 'some babies prefer food they can hold to mashed foods, so offer your baby finger foods from the beginning' 'give your baby the same food as the rest of the family'
As far as choking goes it has classic BLW advice: avoid apple, raw carrot sticks, small round foods like grapes and cherry tomatoes and fish with bones. It also says you should be BFing or offering a pint of formula a day until at least 12 months so so much for people who say you have to drop feeds once they get over 6 months.
I think we've won!
