Well. We are having a bit of trouble with getting Lilly to LOVE solids.
Guess mommy milk is just too good.
So far we have tried
Butternut squash
Peas
Sweet potatoes
Banana
Apples
I was having her play with toys and when she put them in her mouth I'd swoop a spoonful of food in her mouth. She didn't fuss, she just wouldn't open her mouth.
Yesterday I tried letting her feed herself. I know it was a silly idea, but it worked. She likes to put stuff in her mouth so I just let her.
What are some ways you encouraged your child to take solids?
Usually baby will tell you when they are ready for solids, so maybe she just needs a bit more time? Getting that "open your mouth for the spoon" thing can be tricky for some!
ReplyDeleteI don't even remember this stage, but I have pictures to prove it happened. haha. she is so sweet...hope you have a wonderful weekend.
ReplyDeleteJacoby hates purees but if we give him real food like what we are eating he will take it sooo much better!
