5MO DS has been showing signs of being ready for a while (sitting up / holds head up well / everything goes straight in mouth etc) but seemed fairly content. However, the last couple of weeks he's been a nightmare at mealtimes. We used to put him in his bouncer whilst we ate and he was quite happy. Now as soon as food goes on the table he screams until we pick him up and sit him on our laps. We then spend the whole time trying to keep his hands out of our food. When he does get something he doesn't hesitate - straight in the mouth. We're making sure to only eat suitable things at the moment! Today he took a chunk out of my rosemary plant .
I was hoping to wait until 6 months and do BLW with him - should we just go with the flow and start on purees?
