To those who feed LO table food ...

Do you still stick with the 4 day rule? By this point my LO has had mostly all the fruits and veggies and now we're into meats. She has puffs, mum mums, yogurt melts but no table food as of yet. If you give LO some pieces from your dinner are they all things they've had before?? Like seasonings, marinades ect???

No, we stopped the 4 day rule after she had tried almost everything we eat. If I'm making chicken that's going to have alot of seasonings/marinades I take a separate piece and cook it up first. Then, once ours is cooked, I'll put a tiny little bit of the seasonings onto her chicken just so she gets a taste of it.

No. At first we got through all the basic fruits and vegetables while waiting 4 days, but since nothing seemed to affect him we just started serving him whatever we were eating. It was too hard to remember what I had put in a recipe and what I should omit or wait with and he was doing so well with trying everything (loved tamale pie, lasagna, meatloaf, etc.) that we just decided to go with it. I am amazed at the range of taste this kid has! Every baby is different though so what was good for G might not work for everyone!

We just started BLW a few days ago, after a month of doing some purees here and there.  We have no reason to think she has any food allergies, and our pedi said we can give her anything except honey whenever we want (lot of seasonal allergies in our area, he doesn't think it's worth the risk of being exposed to the pollen).  I keep an eye out to make sure no rashes show up, but otherwise I pretty much just take a bit of whatever I'm eating and put it on her high chair tray.  So far her favorite has been spinach casserole.
