Brady had her first veggie on Monday – green beans! I can’t tell if she liked it or not but she ate it which I’ll take as a good sign. We’re supposed to wait 4-5 days between foods so that we can identify an allergy more easily if a problem emerges. So far so good! We finished the jar of green beans yesterday which ended up working out perfectly at 4 days so today Brady had squash. Either she’s getting more used to the whole eating solids thing or she liked the squash better than the green beans because she ate most of what I portioned out for her. After this, I’m going to try and work in either bananas or pears before going back to veggies again. I need to start giving her rice cereal again in addition to the veggies, but have yet to feed her from the spoon twice in one day thus far. But tomorrow’s a new day, right?
These are pics from her experience with green beans!
Just an FYI alert…
Both bananas *and* rice cereal can be very constipating. Also, rice cereal doesn’t have much “nutrition” and while it is kind of “customary” is really unnecessary…so if she’s eating other stuff don’t sweat it. 🙂
