Initially, I wanted to start him on banana... BUT! My help accidentally placed the unripe bananas in the fridge last night~
Anyway, CARROTS!!
I steamed and blended a medium sized carrot in the AVENT Steam Blender (so easy to use!) Then added some formula milk into the puree.
I sat him in the Bumbo chair, turn on the TV, put on his Big Boss Bib and started flying the first flight of solids into the runway.... He opened his mouth and then, Tyler's expression was... BLANK! I think he was shocked at the foreign taste then when he realised, he gave the "sour" squinting face... It was quite funny... Just ashame I don't have extra hands to video this... Then he started pushing them out with his tongue and needless to say, I pushed them back... We played the game of spitting and pushing back in~ haha! I think he probably swallowed at least 1/3 of the portion of roughly 2 teaspoons I parted for him... which is not bad for a start!
Before
After
Going to freeze the remaining portions!
Sad to say, there has been no improvements in his milk intake... I heard it was suppose to be a phase... Well, this phase has been more than 2 months now~ Still taking less than 20oz in 24hours...
Hopefully, he'll enjoy food more than he enjoys milk!
(I'm going to be a really sneaky Mother cos I intend to add some of those formula into all his food...)
