We decided to let Lewis have his first taste of people food last night! Over the past couple of months he has become more and more curious about the food that Jeff and I eat. Everything I have read says that curiosity does not necessarily mean that they are ready to have food and that it is good to wait until at least 6 months before introducing food so that their digestive enzymes are properly developed. Im planning on breast feeding for at least another 6 months so any foods we introduce will just be for fun!
We started with sweet potato and while Lew was really curious he seemed more interested in chewing on his spoon:) I think we will stick to veggies and fruits like butternut squash, peas, zucchini, avocado, banana, etc. Its definitely fun having him at the table with us now!
How much did he eat?
ReplyDeletehe only ate like 1 tiny spoonful, lol. We gave him a little more tonight and Im not sure he's a fan, he doesn't really know how to swallow I don't think
