MR - thanks for caring though!! Yeah all the MCHN here and dieticians (I went to 2 with DS#1) tell me to puree, puree, puree and farex the life out of them They are not pro BLS at all

Missy - I was going to try and wait it out, but DS2 sits in the highchair at the table with us for dinner and he is getting mighty impatient - grabbing, whinging etc so i think he is ready to start

Rosehip - that is what I was thinking - one thing at a time etc - as missy said - building up his plate gradually

so if they are still hungry when you are in the throes of building it up - i suppose i just have to give him more of the same whatever he is having rather than just some of mine etc

I nearly made a booboo at the shops the other day - Zander was whinging, I knew he probably needed a feed, I had just bought some lovely fresh rolls and was in the middle of breaking off a piece of one to give to him to nibble on - i just forgot!!! Needless to say he didnt get it as I got it together, hence why I really wanna do BLS and not puree/farex blah. I wouldnt eat it LOL.

Thanks ladies - will see how we go ...
