mmm, yoghurty armpits, nice!
K's been doing really well, although he hates hates hates his highchair!? he'll sit in it for a bit but soon starts screaming and is inconsolable till we take him out. He'll then sit happily on dad's lap or on the table
and eat more. i dont really want him to eat like this though. Help ?!?
Also, he's discovered his favourite thing ever is strawberries and will eat several at a time - he's worked out that he can put them in whole and squidge them around, swallow the juice then chew the rest - luckily we have loads growing in teh garden right now - this is okay right, that he 'binges' on them? sometimes theyre the only thing he will eat at a meal.
He scared us to death earlier though - eating a chunk of tomato, he normally sucks out the seedy bit and chucks away the peel bit. He must have got a bit of peel though and happened to breathe the wrong time and almost choked on it, he eventually took a breath but went really red and had trouble coughing, he was really upset then. Should I have given him some water ? I had leapt up to pat him on the back when he got it out.
On water - i see some of you give water at meals - I havent been, but usually offer a breastfeed after meals (sometimes he takes it, sometimes not) - shoudl I be offering water with food now?
I cant help with the preloaded spoons though - K's not great with them either, he usually just turns them upside down
