Hi all,
Am hoping for some advice from some more seasoned/less terrified mums than I. I have 22wk (15wk corrected) triplets and want to start weaning the two bigger ones - they're showing the signs of readiness so I'm confident about starting them now. I've just stewed a plum and want to see if I've done it right! So here's what I did:
Ripe plum, peeled with clean knife, cut into pieces, into clean pan, added a little freshly boiled water, boiled until pieces disintegrated, mashed a bit more with fork, put into sterilised bowl, now sitting on the side covered to cool.
Questions: was it ok to boil in metal pan? Puree now seems a bit stringy, is it ok to just avoid stringy bits? Is plum an ok first food to try or too tart for tummies? Ok to leave it in side to cool so I can serve at room temp or should I refrigerate then bring out 30mins before serving to take chill off?
I know they may well just not like the taste, not bothered about that. Just want to check I'm not being dangerous in any way!
Thank you in advance for advising the neurotic idiot woman!
