RE: How to Grow a Renegade: Baby-Led Weaning
Thank you for sharing!! this is a massive article and so full of info.
I let my children wean themselves as well ( they all were around 4 years old when that happened) and especially with my youngest grandson, we adopted the shirtless eating method.
Strip the kid to diapers only before the meal. The clean up is so much easier 😂
Thank you, I am glad you enjoyed the article; it's had a really positive response. We have only done a few shirtless meals but it makes sense! I ended up finding some amazing bibs that are really wide and keep their clothes mostly clean. When we have curry or tumeric though, those shirts come off!
My original plan was to let the kids wean themselves but some days I just hope we make it to one year. I have already had sideways States from family for still nursing at 11 months. Some people have the mentality of, if they're old enough to ask they're too old to nurse. Which is such a ridiculous measurement. It's essentially punishing a child for developing communication skills. -Aimee
