Re: recipies, I HAVE GOT THE BLW COOKBOOK!!! Martina - from a Mod perspective, can I post the recipies here if I attribute them to the book?

[~inbalance~]

Kim, I don't see why not as long as you are listing the book.  I'll double check.  Why don't you post them on the BLW recipes thread that Sarah started and I'll sticky it into the Baby Food Recipes Forum. 

[Kimberlina]

You got it, sista! I'll post them there in the next few days and you can delete them if it's a problem!

[~inbalance~]

So I have stickied Sarah's BLW recipe thread into the Baby Food Recipes forum so that it's easy to find for those who are looking for new ideas!  Make sure you all head on over and add all your favorite recipes!  However I do ask that you post recipes only on that thread and keep all the BLW chatter here.  I'm counting on all of you to fill it up with yummy ideas!

Thank you for starting up the BLW recipe thread again!!  There are a few good recipes in there already that I am eager to try!  I can't wait to see more!

Today I gave T a piece of cracker rather than the whole thing, and he dealt with that a whole lot easier.  He is currently refusing peaches and pears.  I am trying to make sure he eats those so he doesn't get constipated.  Oh well.

 He is currently loving avocados.  What are your lo's fav. foods right now??

Hi there.  To answer your second question, here is a link about BLW:  http://babywhispererforums.com/index.php?topic=92560.0
As for your first question, sometimes someone will mark their spot on a thread by typing 'm@rking' (I originally typed it as is and forgot about the censor, and it came out 'oops!!', how's that for funny - as I'm explaining it I go ahead and type it!).  This word is censored and technically it's considered bad taste to mark a thread, so in it's place appears 'oops!'.

Kim that is awesome!!  It is still on preorder here in the States until Jan 1

I forgot who asked, but we have been doing smaller chunks for about a month and half now and El likes it a lot better.

We were out of town this weekend and on the way home we stopped for lunch and it was a huge milestone...it was the first meal in a restaurant where no one was crying, everyone including Ry ate well, I got to finish my plate and we all left happy!!  Miracles do happen

[bakershaker]

Yay Sarah! That's a rare occasion to celebrate!!  We've had 1 dinner out like that so far, ..so peaceful:)

[Meditrina]

I didnt realise it was in bad taste to m@ark your spot on a thread, better stop doing that!

[~inbalance~]

lol Mary don't worry it still gets done by most people! 

[~Sarah~]

Me either Mary

[timmysmommy]

Hmm, I didn't know you weren't supposed to mark your spot either.  I was wondering why people where typing opps!

Sarah- that was me about the chunks.  I think T is liking them smaller now too! 
 
Yay Sarah and Lisa about eating out!  We've had some good experiences here too!

[Lola's Mum]

That's so funny about the 'oops'. Why is it in bad taste though to want to be on the latest thread and ma@rking a spot? On a more BLW note l wondered if others with experience of a LO around Lola's age had been through the defient throwing of food off the highchair. She did it ages ago and l saw it as all part of the learning experience. It then used to mark the end of the meal when she started throwing food off. It's now more a display of defiance. Not sure at this age if l should kind of tell her off or ignore it. Today she did it and l just said to her that it's going to take me much longer to clear up now so you'll have to stay in the highchair longer. Nt that she could understand me.
