Megan. I heard a stomach is the size of the fist so if Ellen is eating food roughly the size of her fist that would fill her tummy right up.

Thanks Ali, good point! She actually ate a lot yesterday for lunch - I'm guessing 1/4 cup cooked rice, about 8 craisins, and 4-5 small bites of spinach. I couldn't believe how much she ate!!

Yay Megan!  So glad Ellen is eating for you!  Quick question: what is the proper consistency of baby poo now that solids are introduced??  I think T's are too hard.  They are little hard turds.  Should it be more of a mush??  Sorry about the gross question!

Amy - I get all different kinds. Some are hard little pellets, some are soft mush, and some are like regular turds. ;D I think she only gets the pellets after she eats a lot of dairy and is somewhat stopped up. She eats way more formula than solids though, so that might be why I usually get mush.

Amy, it does seem to vary but increasingly they seem to be pretty firm. They kind of mold around the shape of her bum if she's been sitting down. Every now and then we get runny poos bt l think that can be during teething phases. The poos now are so much easier to clean up but wow, they really stink.

The poops definitely become more adult like the more solids they eat. At this early age though I find lots of foods come out no dissimilar to how they went in, only partially digested. Handy for seeing that he is indeed eating lots and how long it takes to pass through but I have had some shockers. Dragonfruit was the worst!

Hi Ladies :) mind if I join? 
I haven't really given much thought to blw, but I'm hardly trying to lead the weaning myself if that makes sense ??? So I just thought I'd follow along and see what's what. :)

Hi all!  ;D

Well we have had a bit of success...E has been eating a little bit more, he seems to like bagels & humous also ate quite a bit of a stew I made the other day, so hopefully he's starting to get the hang of it!
