Solid Food SUCCESS!

Up until this point, feeding Maxson solid food has been pointless. He would spit most of it out, get it all over the place, and then want to nurse right afterwards anyways. So, I decided to try a different approach. I had been making my own baby food, but last time I went to the grocery store, I picked up some pre-made organic baby food. I know, I know, I was so excited about making my own baby food...BUT when we got home and I fed him the store-bought carrots, he LOVED them. He ate a ton and it even substituted a nursing session {which is why I say it's a success...I'm so tired of nursing every two hours!!}. So now, I'm feeding him solids twice a day and it replaces a nursing. IT. IS. HEAVENLY. Apparently, he just already doesn't like my homemade baby food concoctions. But if store-bought makes him happy and helps him eat solids, then that's what we'll have to do! Has anyone else had an experience like this? Do you think this is a sign of a picky eater already??





P.S. although he LOVES the carrots, he HATES the peas. It's hilarious watching him make disgusted faces while feeding him! :)

  1. That is so cute! Weird that he doesn't like homemade baby food... What do you think the difference is??? I want to make my baby food too. I hope Isaac likes it! But I won't be starting for another month or two.
