Starting Solid Food

When we last visited the Pediatrician, she suggested that we begin trying some solid foods with Taylor.  This is a no-stress behavioral training!  We are basically teaching her to eat off a spoon.  She is still getting her regular bottles and we are trying to incorporate 2 feedings of 1 tablespoon of a solid each day.  So far we have tried rice cereal with some Mommy milk and it has been going very well.  She is getting better about opening her mouth for the spoon and more of it is making it her mouth than on her face.  Trickiest part is trying to make sure she doesn't put her hands in her mouth when it's full.  She loves when Daddy does the airplane and train feeding too!  Later in the week we are going to move on to some yellow vegetables before moving onto some green vegetables later in the month of January.

 

Look at me Dad!  I'm eating from a spoon!

 

Yum!  I'm liking this!
