And I want to go at it fairly confidantly! 5 month DS has never had anything but milk and I am not planning to give him anything until 6 months and go straight to soft foods as the BLW book says. My plan was to start with
Stick of steamed carrot
Steamed broccoli floret
Small pieces of chicken breast
Does this sound ok? In people's experiences should you offer food once a day to start or can you offer two meals if the baby is over 6 months? I was then planning on some breakfast of cut up crumpets, cucumber, and some cheese through the first week. Maybe thick porridge and scrambled egg or omlette cut into strips. I'll be having it too. Then a taste of some casserole like pork or beef in the evening?
I am excited to begin but it is hard to shake off the feeling that i should be pureeing something :) what were your BLW first meals and how did they go? I hope to have him mainly on what we eat quickly (although as husband gets in late he's going to have to have his own dinner on week nights) but want to give him a range of bits to start with.
