I started my baby boy on BLW 2 weeks before he turned 6 months old. He has been rather interested and accurate in putting the foods into his mouth but noticed he hasn't started biting on them. He's just mouthing them. Did I do it wrong? When will they start to chew on the food?

is he able to sit upright without support? that's when blw is supposed to start, around 6mos or later - blw is not a method to start solid foods earlier than recommended. i offered foods to my 6mo on the dot but she wasnt interested so we took it slow. she started only biting and ingesting around 7mos+ and i noticed this coincided with when she was sitting much more stably on her own

He can sit upright but with support needed.
