For those of you who BLW...

How long did it take for them to actually eat what you gave them? I feed my DS purees right now but I want to start feeding him what we eat. I tried giving him some puffs, bananas, sweet potato but he doesn't do anything with it except mash it up. I guess I assumed he would automatically put it in his mouth since he does that with everything else!! If he doesn't get anything in his mouth should I still give him some purees? I have been so stressed about this solid eating thing and I don't know why. I think that if he doesn't have solids at night he is going to starve or something (which I know is not the case). I guess I am just being a worry wart mom!

    It may take a few weeks for him to get the hang of it and actually EAT.

    Solid food is just practice right now, so you don't have to give him purees if he doesn't eat a lot at first.

    When I give J something new, be doesn't always realize it is food. I don't BLW, but he's had puffs, and a couple other baby snacks. I usually put his hand to his mouth when he's holding it. Then he tastes it, makes a weird face, then eats it.
