I normally pump some fresh BM to dilute his cereals while waiting for the steamer to beep. i must thank Jacy for getting me his cereals all the way from singapore. She gave me healthy times brown rice cereals and HIPP rice cereals. HIPP rice cereals is sweeter and daryl prefers it more than brown rice. I bought him another box of healthy times oatmeal cereals too.
daryl doesn't like any food which is green in colour. He dislikes avocado, sweet peas, french beans and broccoli. He will stick his tongue out and said euuukkkkkkk whenever i force him to eat avocado. Since avocado is rich in fat and is important for the myelination of his neurons, i have determined to mix a lil bit of avocado in his puree. MIL said i abuse him with avocado since it really tastes bad. But i don't care. I want my boy to eat avocado.
He is a fruit lover. He normally finished the whole bowl of fruit puree. I practice baby led weaning. He grabs his bendable avent spoon with his left hand and scoop the food inside his lil mouth with his right fingers. He will suck his fingers and sometimes rub the puree all over his face. Cheepy has been advising me not to let him eat that way. The puree will cause rashes over the face. I am a very OCD mother. I can't stand seeing rashes on my boy's face too. I want him to enjoy his meals. So, i allow messiness and cleaning is done only after he finished his meals.
I have tried the following recipes
avocado
sweet potatoes
carrots
sweet potato with carrots
broccoli
apricot
apricot + banana
apricot + pear
apple
apple + pear
banana avocado
peach
peachy avocado
sweet peas
pumpkin
pumpkin + sweet peas
pumpkin + french beans
potato + carrot + french beans
apple + pear + avocado
I mixed his fruity meals with either rice cereals, brown rice or oatmeals.
after one month of trying, i have accomplished my mission. he takes avocado and oatmeals which he hated so much.
His poo is becoming more solid and smellier too.
baby daryl is learning how to take sips of water from a straw cup too.
can't wait to try him on other food
when mummy goes to work, daryl will have to eat the same veg meal for the day. kelian lorry
