The journey of weaning

Begin

6th of Sept mark the six months for this little birdie. Now she can start to take her solid food as in puree. The first time she tasted something different from her milk was dates, when she was 5.5months. That satisfying look she gave me showed that she wants more. with that, my dilemma as a mother begin. I vague. not sure weather I have to start to give her solid food or not. As she showed the sign that she can eat. She can holds her head up, sit up without me holding her and mostly she salivates.

Then I went down to social media ask around about this. And they helped me.I decided to wait till she's 6.

In the meantime. I keep on giving her dates, as dates are good, rich with vitamins.

Now she's 6. I have a lot of things in my mind, what I wanna feed her. As far as Im concern same old menu sure will lose her appetite. Therefore, Im preparing few things so she'll enjoy her meal.

But first I bought Bebea babycook, that is way faster and easy for me to cook meal for my daughter. It consume time, space, and I dont have to use extra tools to cook her menu. All I need is just my one and only expensive babycook.

First meal I steamed rice, with carrots and dates then I blended the whole thing together. And she loved it

The next day, I planned to give her fruits, so that it'll be easier for her to poo. I mixed avocado and banana.

And back again with rice,carrots and dates for few days.

This week I plan to give her steam rice, mix vege, broccoli with pear. I put a bit of pear so that it give the sweetness taste.. At this stage I still avoid honey,sugar, and salt as her kidney is not ready yet.
