July 2009 Moms

So our babies seem to be on the same page more or less.

marijke, are there lots of babies on the pf who's parents are struggling witht he eating? i dont even have a chance to go look.

Sumaya I found the wholesome baby food website when I was still doing purees but I haven't even check it since starting BLW because I now just tweaked our diet so that B can eat whatever we are eating.

wow! Bryce gags and coughs and then vomits if the food is too coarse so I have been making it smoother. I am slowly giving him bigger pieces of whole food so we seem to be progressing!

Thanks ladies

It's interesting to see what other baba's are eating? Marijke, that wholesomebabyfood website you gave us the other day, do you follow it or do you just give B whatever you are having?

I haven't given B anything mashed or pureed in over 2 months now. I still give her whole foods and her fine motor skills are amazing.

I knew a guy in college whose mother didn't allow him to eat 2 min noodles because of the MSG's (the stuff written on the back starting with an E and numbers - the fake tasts and colours) I do give B 2 min noodles about once every two weeks, but find regular noodles with shapes and different colours a better option.

If I look at all the mommies on pampers with 1.5 year olds stuggling to get their babies to eat anything except stage 2 purity then I'm very glad that B is so use to eating real food.

I also gave Bryce 2 min noodles but he didn't like how they felt - gave it to him in a bowl..... I make rice and chicken for him, mince etc and really make it as smooth as possible and he seems to enjoy. Gave him finger toast the other day; it was too cute!!!

I'm so worried that he is not eating enough, he even dropped a bottle so now he only has 2 milk bottles, 250mls each, and tea in between. He gags when I give him puried food, makes himself naar.

Many thanks for the advice - going to try finger toast
