To make a long story short - we restarted DD on solids this morning (she's 6.5 months). At 4.5 months she had been put on rice cereal per GI doctor for her reflux and started on pears shortly thereafter. She did great with a spoon but soon got VERY constipated from the rice and cramps and gas from the pears. We found she had such an immature digestive system and with our Ped, decided to hold off on all solids until after 6 months. So we stopped about 5-6 weeks ago.
Per our Ped, started again today. She wanted us to skip cereals for now and gave us a list to start with - which had avocado, potato (white), peas, plums, apricots and carrots on it. We started with avocado today. No banana for now due to continuing constipation - no prunes or pears due to intestinal gas. No peaches for no because acidic.
Don't think DD liked it at all. She didn't cry but did make faces and push the spoon away and turn her face. She ate some but got a bit chokey too. I had mashed up a ripe avocado and thinned with some water. Not sure if DD's dislike was a taste or texture issue - or both. Can I do anything to help matters? Would it taste better thinned with a bit of formula?
If she dislikes it do I continue on for 4 days to test? Or just drop it?
