It's that fun, interesting time in my daughters life where she gets to try solids! She actually started to try things out when she was 5 months old but that was just a little rice cereal here and there. She didn't really get into things until she was 6 1/2 months old. If there is one thing to say about it its that the girl loves to eat! However there are 2 curve balls to that statement. First one being is that she still has a sensitive stomach and certain food (mostly orange colored ones) cause her to spit up even more! Secondly is that she is pretty insistant on feeding herself. If I try to feed her via spoon she really doesn't have the time of day to eat. So I figured out that if I put the purees I had made up into one of those fresh fruit mesh bags she just goes to town! Loves everything I give her and loves that she has control over it. Added bonus is that she gets to make a mess while doing it! Not necessarily as exciting for mom..haha
So, once I've finished up the purees I've already made up for her I thought I would give baby led weaning a try. Seems she's steering herself that way anyways. The choking aspect of it is quite concerning to me but everyone assures me that they gag more than choke.
Seems crazy, she's growing up so fast!
