We started Poppy (as I am calling her for now, but it may change as I don't like nicknames...) on solids a few weeks ago. Milk just wasn't doing it for her anymore and Dr. B said that it was a-ok because some babies just need it. We also started Finley early as well.
Here she is sitting in her high chair waiting for some delicious runny rice cereal. My how time flies!
She did really well. She loved it. This was exciting. Finley was the worst baby to feed.
Nothing like organic pureed apples. Finley used to love these but now she won't eat it. Probably because there is no sugar in them. Poppy also enjoyed her apples as well as peaches, mango + pears.
And she really liked her sweet potatoes and carrots too.
Green Beans + Broccoli (separately of course) were not enjoyed. At all. I even mixed broccoli with carrots to see if that helped. It didn't.
As soon as she wakes up from her morning nap, I have some peas waiting for her followed by some stir fry for supper. Sounds appetizing doesn't it? Unfortunately, stirfry for a 6 month old is as gross as you can get. But it's got all kinds of fun things for Penelope to try!!
The only bad thing about P being on solids? Her poop. I forgot about baby poop with solids in diet. Gross, smelly and not pleasant. Not at all.
Have fun with exploring the new foods, I had so much fun making Leigham's food, I wish I had done that with Chandler, but I didn't have that much time off with Chandler so it all turned out.
ReplyDeleteI agree baby diapers on a solid food diet are DISGUSTING!!!
