DD is 11mo and we've more or less done BLW from the start - had a few dabbles with purees, but she wasn't interested and generally rejected the spoon in favour of finger foods. She turned into a pretty good eater and for the past 2 months has been guzzling pretty much what we eat, really enjoying bit and feeding herself with impressive skills!
However..... She's been really off her food in the past 10 days - can't interest her in anything except yoghurt & weetabix - both spoonfed of course and a very limited section of finger foods - toast, blueberries, whole apple (but not chopped apple!) and shredded wheat are pretty much all she'll feed herself atm. I think she's had a bit of a tummy bug as her poo has gone really weird (see previous thread about white poo!) and DH & I have both been sick too.
Anyway, tonight, after she rejected her yummy beef & brocolli stir fry, I puréed it up for her and she ate the whole lot! I've never known her accept spoon feeding like that.
Anyone else had this? I feel a bit about it as it feels like a backward step and she used to be so good with her finger foods.
