Okay so we have just started BLW and it's going well. One of the first things I gave her was half an apple I couldn't believe she actually ate about half of it! She also loves bread. Some foods end up mostly on the floor but I recon that's all part of it.
MIL is desperate for her to "start eating" though (um...where do you think the apple went) and keeps making comments about making her soup, buying her baby yogurts, feeding her with a spoon and that she needs help getting the food in her mouth etc. She is generally quite respectful of my opinions and crazy ideas but I keep trying to explain what we are trying to do and she doesn't get it. Just wondered how you have dealt with explaining to people who don't understand BLW. Any tips?
