I've read the BLW book and started BLW last Tuesday. I thought BLW was going to be the way forward for us, as LO won't let me put a spoon in his mouth! I know it is still early days, but LO doesn't seem to eat much. His nappies are more grim, but only sometimes.
Today the HV told me to put him on 3 meals a day because he is 6 months already...so I (attempted to) give him dinner as well as breakfast and lunch (attempts) but he didn't really eat anything so I gave in and let him chew on a rusk - of which he ate most!!
What foods other than sweet potato, courgette and banana have you found to be easier for a baby to eat ? (no teeth!) he has had all sorts of foods this last week and a bit, but only gets anywhere with super soft mushy stuff.
Also, does anyone use albidec (sp?)?! (a supplement?)
Thanks if you have read this - it is long and boring!!
Edit: I'm actually finding it really stressfull - the mess, preping and cleaning. I myself have a rubbish diet, so thinking of healthy lunches/breakfasts is a nightmare and we eat dinner after LO has gone to bed.
