So, I may be joining here sooner than I thought! I had every intention of waiting til 6 months like I did with DD, but DS is stealing our food and getting seriously cranky when we take it back. He puts it straight to his mouth and chews. He has a good pincer grip too, which surprised me.

I caved and gave him a rusk the other day, it went straight in his mouth, he chewed and swallowed the bits that came off! He's only 5 months next Friday, so this really goes against everything I thought about solids with DD lol. But o guess, if we do BLW again and he takes food and eats it, he must be ready, right? Otherwise he wouldn't/couldn't eat it?

I think we'll keep stopping him til he's 5 months, then let him have what he grabs, then actually give him food when he's 6 months.
