Banana and carrot for Lunch

 

[Elfs Mummy]

We have peach !!

After realising the table was to tall after trying to eat it !! we had to move to sitting in bumbo with food on lap !

it was quite slippery but it was deffinatly squished, tried and taken apart

the cloth was also tasty !!

 

[isobel84]

She's so cute!

 

[Minchin]

yay!!! go maisie!

 

[Lacey's Mummy]

Aw shes so cute! Glad she's managing it really well.
I haven't tried charley with peach yet, gonna get some now x x

 

[Piglet10]

awwww thatsso cute shes doing brill cos shes only young too!! just shows u can blw earlier than 6 months too which i was always curious about xxx

 

[Elfs Mummy]

I didnt think you could but shes soo ready for it !! she hasn't choked yet which im really worried about

 

[Elfs Mummy]

lunch time !!

i was just going to give her bananna but she wanted what mummy had sooo

banana, spinach and tomato which was prodded and poked

the question is why bring food to your mouth when the mouth can go straight to the food ?

 

[Baby Bean]

Awww bless her! Very cute, well done maisie! X

 

[Amy_J]

aww shes adorable! shes taken to it so well. deffo blw next time for me, even tho oh "doesnt get" it, and nearly had a heart attack when he saw marley gagging on a biscuit!! lol.

 

[Elfs Mummy]

lol im really worried about that i live with my parents and they dont get it xx

 

[Amy_J]

you just have to be calm and trust your lo (easier said than done lol, i did secrectly shit myself when he seemed to be choking!) but from what ive read and seen its only natural and the way they learn to eat and the gaging thing is more forwards than backwards? or something??

i think its great!!! she looks like a little trooper!

 

[Elfs Mummy]

she loves it !!

 

[isobel84]

Bless her. Just be careful with spinach, the nitrate in it is not good for babies especially under 6month. I occasionally give it to Noa tho, but do not give reheated spinach atall (i see she only had a tiny leaf but thought I just tell u incase u didn't know)

 

[isobel84]

My family (exept dad) didn't agree with blw but now they are well impressed, just keep at it n don't worry about choking, it very very rarely happens. Gagging happends a lot but its only there way to learn to move the food around the mouth.

 

[Elfs Mummy]

yeah she only had the leaf as it was on my plate and she wanted it, shes not swallowing anything apart from banana so im not worried she loved ripping it up

 

[Squeakz]

Yeah bananas as well are fruits to watch as if you have to many its easy to 'overdose' on potaSsium!!!!!!!! Otherwaise yay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Looking very happy in the pics!!!! X

 

[Elfs Mummy]

Yesterday Day 3

Breakfast: fruity porridge which she gave herself and then ate the bowl !!
Lunch: Broccoli which she loved it was gummed and sucked !!

really wish i had my camera she kept trying to pick stuff up but couldnt manage it to well so when i was putting another bit on the table she grabbed my hand starred and the broccoli and then shoved it in her mouth

Day 4:

Breakfast: fruity Porridge
Lunch: Pear

we had out first gagging today and i have to say i was scared and i ended up hitting her back even though she had it covered was really horrible watching her but she did eat a whole piece and wanted more think her eyes are to big for her tummy x

 

[isobel84]

It's scary isn't it xx you soon get used to it, I don't even blink when Noa gag now.
Avocado is really good for them as its fatty but good fat, Noa loves it x

 

[Elfs Mummy]

i was thinking about that the other day we normaly get some in the main shop so going to add it to the list
