O mankind! if ye have a doubt about the Resurrection, (consider) that We created you out of dust, than out of sperm, then out of a morsel of flesh, partly formed and partly unformed, in order that we may manifest ( Our Power) to you; and We cause whom We will to rest in the wombs for an appointed term, then do We bring you out as babes, then (foster you) that ye may reach your age of full strenght; and some of you are called to die and some are sent back to the feeblest old age, so that they know nothing after known (much). And (further), thou seest the earth barren and lifeless, but when We pour down rain on it, it is stirred (To life), it swells,and it puts forth every kind of beautiful growth in pairs. ( Surah al- Hajj, ayat 5, Qur'an)

baby led weaning: day 7

We love biscuits! Now I know this might sound like I am turning him into a junk food baby but he really only has one every few days. At our regular sling library group he wolfed down 2 wafer biccies without me noticing. I was checking how much he had dropped and could not find a bit!
It was also good to talk to others about the weaning and was recommended broccoli and on a new facebook page I have joined I had some fabulous comforting messages explaining I should worry a little less and just trust my baby to decide what he can and cant eat. So I went for it, I gave him vege lasagna and although he didn't ingest much I think he at least had fun exploring it. I was going to try potatoes today but he fell asleep early after a long day of whinging, I think he is either growing or teething.
Some new bits recommended to me were:
  • sweet potato
  • steam veg till softer
  • put a hole in your banana ring (like my cucumber)
  • cauliflower
  • mushing not always needed, just let them explore softened food (steam veg a little longer)
