Continue feeding your baby!!

It finally happened! My LO of 9 months finished her food (and actually chewed and swallowed)!

With the approval of her pediatrician, we started solids at around 4.5 months. Very minor stuff but we were trying. She would spit everything out… ok yes she was 4.5.

But then she started to reach 7/8 months and noticed all these ppl posting full meals and I’m likely baby behind in solids?? I was starting to get discouraged.

I kept at is, with a mix of purees and BLW. Tbh whatever felt right that day. I was just going with the flow and willingness of my baby. I just thought she hated everything!

And finally after trying to feed her every single day. She finally had her first full meal without any spitting out, (or maybe she really liked lentils).

I want to speak to all the parents who are feeling discouraged in their babies’ solid food journey, to keep at it! Even the days that they spit everything out and throw everything, the day will come where they start chewing and swallowing 😭😭
