When did u start giving LO what u were eating and not waiting the 4 days for allergies? I'm not doing BLW but DS2 seems disinterested in the purees I'm making and mOre into what we have. I'm just nervous about allergies. TIA!
I give my DS tofu in pea sized squares. I give him the firm tofu and it is a perfect finger food that is easy to mash with him gums. he loves it. I also give him pasta cut up in smaller pieces, usually rotini so that it isnt flat and doesnt stick to the try and he can grab it him self. I give him YoBaby whole fat yogurt, cut up bananas, avocado very steamed broccoli, deshelled peas, steamed carrots, pieces of small chicken breast moistened with breastmilk or with a little apple sauce on it to soften it. wholesomebabyfood.com has been an awesoem resource for me.
Our health nurses said 2 days was all the provincial recommendation was. I started out with 4 days and then dropped to 2 days and now she has something new every other day. Sometimes it's every day if it's a food related to things she's already had. For instance: yesterday she had prunes for the first time but I also gave her a little sour cream because she's already had other dairy products.
Re: Table food?
With DD1, I did purees starting at 6 months, and I stopping waiting the 3 days by 7 to 8 months.
