Hiya all,
You'd think I would have looked into this a bit better, but I just feel totally confused now. Decided ages ago to go for BLW and have bought in loads of organic veg, pasta, rusks and cheese so got all the ingredients.. But where do I start?
People say he can eat more or less the same as what we eat!?
But I want to know if I should introduce one thing at the time or several things in one go???
Is he more likely to eat it if we eat something similar? Like we eat chicken stir fry and he has steamed veg? Perhaps a small bit of chicken?
Or we eat macaroni n cheese and offer him pasta shapes??
Please help!!!
We also have organic baby yogurts and bananas if you think that would be better to start with??
We don't have any great allergy concerns. DH has excma (? spelling) and I have hayfever. I'm BF and DS used to get a rash on his back and tummy, DR said it was food allergy, something I ate and I stopped eating chocolate (which I must admit I ate in excess ) the rash faded away...
Sorry about this long post. Hope you can help me.
Thanx
