This past week my little one has really developed her eating skills. it's like at 8 months a switch was flicked on! She had 3 dinners last night! She was gagging heaps but this week not at all, and she is having a greater variety of textures too. We gave her bits of tuna pasta bake and she loved it. So cool to see her licking and then chewing on the pasta spirals and then swallowing it.

I think strawberries can be a bit acidic for bubs. My LO had kiwi fruit (which she loved) but got rash around her mouth which i think is maybe from the acidity? i think strawberry did it to her another time but it faded pretty quick. i'm just gonna go slow with them.

Another woohoo- i was talking about BLS at MG and e-mailed the 101 BLS recipes around a few months back. One of the mum s asked me how bub was going, and she had packed steamed vegie sticks for her bubs lunch. so cool to see something different than another jar!

So far i haven;t really had to pack any food cos she hasn't really been eating that much and i could always give her what i was having or if it wasn't suitable she could just wait til we got home and just BF while we were out. Now i kinda have to think bit more about packing stuff to tke out, and work out less mess things for when we out. At home i often give her food when she is just wearing a nappy with a teatowel over the top (cloth nappies).
