Eating what you are eating?

laclou · June 2013

This first time mom is just curious what your LO's are eating. Are they eating what you are eating? I've been seeing that some are, but I'm not sure how that works. We will give her bread, some rice, or cut up pasta if we are having that with dinner, but most meals she just gets Gerber pureed food (and puffs, yogurt melts, rice rusks, other baby snacks). What else should I be introducing her to? Even cheerios seem too hard for me but my friends swear they are OK!

He pretty much eats what we eat now. We do purees every once in a while, but not often. I just cut up whatever it is into bite sized pieces and let him have at.

He eats what we eat. Today he's had scrambled eggs, bell pepper, hashbrowns, cheese, fruit, deli meat [turkey], cooked carrot sticks, crackers, and yogurt. Tonight we're having spaghetti with meatballs and he'll eat that too.

Griffin eats what we eat. The kid loves potatoes and meat. He's his daddy's boy.

I would like DD to eat what we eat, but she seems to have some food sensitivities. Also, that is not always practical. Last night we had cumin roasted pork tenderloin. Tonight we are having BBQ ribs. Friday we are having enchiladas. These are not for babies. )

Her meals involve a pureed food, a raw fruit or steamed veggie as finger food, and some kind of whole grain, be it puffs, rice crackers, pasta, etc.

Why not for babies? Are you just worried about the spices? Emilie has had spices from the beginning, and eats what we eat, even if it's slightly spicy. She eats anything and hasn't had any reactions so I am not concerned.

DS has eaten all of these things...I guess he didn't get the memo! DH loves enchiladas so he's had them at least 6 or 7 times, lol!

DS eats everything we eat. There are a few things he doesn't like, but we keep trying them anyway. He loves carbs, so we try to give him those last, otherwise he'd never eat anything else, lol!

we started cherios this week and she eats some of my food from time to time, but she's still not a huge fan of purees.

she loves fresh fruit though. pears, peaches, bananas...

Emery eats all of these things, too. If I feel like the food is TOO spicy or salty (which it usually isn't, since I cook at home I can keep salt content low), I may rinse off some of it for him a bit.

Today Emery had sliced bananas, raisons, grapes peeled and quartered. Blackberries and yogurt. Bread with my moms grapefruit jelly. We stopped by Arbys on the way home from the pool so he had a few bites of roast beef (I typically don't give him fast food) but then shared a bowl of oatmeal with me later, because this mama needed oatmeal at 6 oclock tonight!

Last night he had homemade beef and bean chili. On Friday we had a brunch and he had quinoa salad, watermelon, quiche, donuts, blueberry muffins...

He eats everything.
