Hi again,
So, yesterday, I sat down to offer LO a yoghurt (he immediately takes the spoon pre-loaded and sort of plays with it, sucks a bit etc.). But, yesterday, I noticed that as I went to hand it to him, he reached out his hand but also opened his mouth. He had over a third of a 90g pot! Maybe he's computed that there is 'food' on the spoon now..
Tried weetabix this morning and again he opened his mouth and reached his hand out. he lost interest after not very long but ate some. Don't get me wrong, if you added it all up it would probably be less than 2 tsp, but still.
My query is, do I continue solely with BLW and offer runny foods with a spoon. Or, should I see if he continues to open his mouth for the spoon, albeit holding it himself too, and add in some purees too? As it seems easier to introduce certain foods that way, i.e. some meats, fish etc.? If I start doing a few purees, I presume I can skip the really runny stage and go to the more textured stage though? (he has certainly swallowed bits of food but not big bits etc. but still presume runny purees would be going backwards?)
What do you think?
