Baby Led Solids chatter #6

[Lily Dust]

Yeah we did. DD is much more in favour of fruit then vegies most of the time. But she will go through phases of loving all vegies and then only eating peas but fruit seems to remain consistant, loves it anytime

Breastmilk is pretty sweet so it's not surprising that bubs like fruit (that are often sweet). My DD is loving oranges and mandarin atm.

DD has a few teeth coming through and a runny nose (maybe related) and is not eating that much this week.

She was excited this morning to have left over roast potato for dinner though!

how do you do the oranges..just quarter/eighth them style? or peel and segment them?.....tried them with connor and he is not a big fan....we call him our champagne baby at the moment cos flavour of the month is bananas......friggin riggin......if h won't eat anything else he'll always have a banana.....I swear we're gonna have to declare bankruptcy it's costing so much!!

[belfie]

good question re the oranges... we haven't tried 'em yet, but yeah, we're missing those bananas!

Joshua is fine with milk

[peanutter]

It's just so convenient. Now that DS has started on milk and we're slowing down his formula, when we go out to eat we don't even need to pack food really, other than some cruskits in the car. Yesterday, we just bought him eggs on toast with tomato and a hash brown, and he was fine

messy, but fine!

I've got to say, I love the showing off factor of BLS. LOL

me too star she ate vegies the other night at my mums and she was impressed

jazzy had tuna casserole tonite feeding herself as i type i hope giving her milk is ok does anyone know

[peanutter]

same here - we just cook whatever meal we're up to, and then we plonk a portion on DS's high chair tray, and let him go for it

have done since 6 months.

there was very limited success for a while, but now he hardly has any bottles (0-2 per day) and the rest of solid food. And he *loves* it!!

welcome, kazbah!!
welcome star!!
