Weaning Challenge
Big day for the little man today! I was contemplating whether to start introducing solids or not! I wanted to wait and monitor, first of all, if Ed does not finish his milk on any of the meals, he will wake up prematurely and wants a suck on the breasts. This, took place 3 times this week and I was convinced that it was time to do it! I have almost forgotten how to wean a baby. I remembered it was a learning process with Clement and I thought this time I would be an expert, what expert? Every child is different therefore the learning process is different. Thank God I didn’t have to start from ‘basic’, I knew what to expect and what to look out for!
I managed to cleaned and sterilised all the spoons and bowls which I kept, they are still in good condition and I remembered clearly that I enjoyed those times. It was always cooking and freezing those pureed veggies and fruits, wonderful colours cubes that were mix and match at each meal.
Edgar is not an ‘eater’ not as much as Clement. Clement loves his food. Edgar eats when he is hungry, that’s about it, I don’t think he actually enjoys them. I guess if I cook some yummy puree (that can’t be that hard!) he might actually enjoy it after all. Anyway, the first of the many to come, sat him down and tried with baby rice! Took some video of it and obviously I could not stop laughing! So the video quality might not be that great. He is too cute! He didn’t take much but it was a good try out and tomorrow we will make it better!
