I think it is quite difficult to gauge how likely a baby may choke. Hence it is always good to practice these safety measures (from: http://www.whattoexpect.com/first-year/feeding-baby/baby-led-weaning-101.aspx#choking-risk): - Avoid serving any foods that are choking hazards, including nuts, whole grapes, apples with the skin and cherries. - Never leave a baby alone with food. - Keep baby sitting upright in his high chair while eating. - Watch for allergic reactions. That said, the thinking is no longer to hold back on certain foods to avoid food allergies: The more options you offer, the more likely your newbie foodie will be to accept different foods — which translates to fewer mealtime battles in the future. - Explain baby-led weaning to everyone who takes care of your child so that they follow the same safety precautions you do. Also, here is an article on what to do if your baby is choking: http://www.whattoexpect.com/toddler/childhood-injuries/first-aid-for-a-choking-child.aspx
At the initial attempts, baby will most likely gag because he either puts too much food into his mouth at once or because he pushes it too far back. Gagging or the gag reflex is a safety mechanism that prevents choking. Baby learns to move food from the back of the throat to the front thus preventing food from getting lodged in his throat. At the same time, he learns what not to do next time. Choking will be indicated by baby looking terrified, unable to breathe and he or she will make very little noise. To prevent choking, make sure baby is never left alone with food and ensure that the foods are cut into small enough pieces.
Your baby isnt more likely to choke with blw as compared to other weaning, as long as - baby is in an upright position - baby is in control of what goes in his mouth - obvious choking hazards are avoided - baby is supervised
