No Wrong Way at Restaurants
- You can make baby-led weaning work at restaurants by either bringing your own food, ordering your own meal, or ordering food for your baby.
- There is no wrong way; choose the approach that works best for your family.
Ordering Baby Food Can Backfire
- Katie's cousin tried ordering plain chicken and broccoli for the baby at California Pizza Kitchen, but the food was dry and undercooked.
- They ended up giving the baby bits of their own meals, illustrating the challenge of ordering baby-friendly food at restaurants.
Order Your Meal, Share Safely
- It's often easier to order your own meal and find parts baby can safely eat rather than ordering special food.
- Avoid giving babies raw leafy greens and consider that occasional small amounts of salt at restaurants are okay.
