Never mind HER eating habits .... BLW has had a real impact on what *I* eat
Yes I know what you mean!
Katie has been on a bit of an eating strike recently, and then woke up hungry at 6am this morning as I didn't give her any cereal last night
And she doesn't like the shredded wheat (can't say I blame her however
). However she ate masses this evening - a home-made beefburger (one thing she will ALWAYs eat), a philly sandwich left over from lunch (ie a whole slice of bread), plus some of DH and I's dinner from last night (pasta carbonara - which she usually ignores).... and then out of interest I gave her a spoon and a pot of pear puree which we had in the cupboard and showed her how to scoop it up, and she polished off the lot
I have loaded the spoon with yoghurt for her before, so she knew what to do with a spoon, but it's the first time she's used it herself to get food out of the pot.It was a bit messy but not too bad - only one spoonful wanged itself out of the pot at high speed and landed on the wall behind, the rest when in her mouth or vaguely in that direction. She had such a happy grin on herself, I think she was really chuffed! So no more mummy loading up the spoon!
I will also try a fork sometime this week as we haven't tried that yet either.
Today we were at a party and they had lots of children's finger food. Katie ignored the lot but tucked into my chips and fish goujons ....
