                            With spoon-feeding purees, there is little concern that the infant will choke on the foods offered (even if they do indeed gag on it). With BLW however, the infant is self-regulating the amount of food they put in their mouths while also learning how much of that food they can safely swallow when self-fed.

Signs and symptoms include: Constipation, which is often the first sign.
