Introduce yourself and your baby in a few words.
My name is Caroline and I'm Arthur's mom. He's a little boy who's now two years old. I'm a kindergarten teacher and I love doing activities with my son!
Why did you choose BLW ?
When I became pregnant, I researched the different types of weaning available. I discovered BLW (Breast-Led Weaning). I immediately loved this approach to food: I wanted to introduce my son to the true nature of food!
What scared you?
I wasn't really scared per se. However, I was quite stressed about him not eating enough. So, initially, we opted for a mixed diet.
Did the BLW Baby platform help you? If so, how?
The BLW Baby website was exactly what I needed! I started making recipes for Arthur when he was 7-8 months old. I made very basic things like cakes. I was short on time, but more importantly, I was desperately short of ideas! BLW Cuisine allowed me to discover dozens of recipes that I've been able to cook, and still cook, for Arthur and me!
When did the baby start eating more elaborate recipes?
We started offering more elaborate recipes around 7-8 months. We used a lot of recipes from the platform and now Arthur eats almost the same as us!
Baby's favorite recipe
The famous chocolate banana fondant! A real favorite for the whole family!
What doesn't the baby like?
Arthur doesn't like peppers. I've also noticed that he's quite sensitive to different textures. Thanks to the BLW , I've been able to adapt them to his needs!
Any advice for parents who want to get started?
Trust yourself and trust your baby, they have far more abilities than we imagine!
Do you have a nice or not-so-nice anecdote to share?
I could tell dozens of stories! Every meal is a real adventure with Arthur and it's a real pleasure to see him grow day by day!
