Hi We have only just started solids here but I have decided I would like to try full time BLS. We have done a little bit, but mostly have been spoon feeding.

DS hasn't quite figured out yet that he can feed himself. If I put a toast soldier in front of him he will pick it up and bang it on the tray like he would with a toy. I moved his hand towards his mouth and then he lets go of it, and starts screaming because it's gone and he wants to eat! This goes on for a while and then he gets frustrated and I end up holding the toast for him so he can eat it. I guess he will figure it out eventually, but should I start BLS when he hasn't figured out that he can actually put food in his mouth?
