Think thats is.

think he might even be 28 weeks now

add baby corn, green beans and brown rice to that.

Thats alot Little Piggie....

Well, DS is having roast chicken, roast potatoes and veg tomorrow then And i think ill put him in the highchair rather than the bumbo - his gagging is getting alot better, so, I think I feel safer now

And cottage pie the next day God help my carpet

Rice??? How did he manage?

grabbed a handfull and down it goes. same with grated cheese.

yes highchair good idea, surely in bumbo you have to pass him food?

I hold the plate on my hand...

QP, why dont you eat at the same time? At least you know you will get time to eat then. (and you might relax a bit.

Forgot to say, master piggie had a BIG bite of a sandwich i was eating while out (not a lot i could do in a cafe with him in my knee, should know better by now), he was fine.

when I used the highchair when I started, he cried. He likes sitting in the bumbo thingy...

i disapprove of bumbos. there, i said it.

really? why?

i sit opposite dd and we both eat off her highchair table.

I wish id got a tripp trapp now, i think DS might have liked that. Hopefully this one will....have an accident or something

MP, highchair is at the table so that he eats with us, we all sit and have breakfast together in the morning, its great.

whats a trip trap?

it's a nice (quite pricey) highchair that goes upto your table, so baby eats off the table with you rather than having a table attached to their chair. more sociable, gets baby used to eating round the table.

my chiropractor said she would ban them, reckons that they are storing up back problems for the future. if a baby can't sit up, so she says, they shouldn't sit up. when their muscles have developed enought then they will, any sitting up before that is to their detriment. but then she is pretty hardcore .

in terms of BLW i think they are pretty useless, they mean that you have to pick up their food and you can't just let them have it out in front of them to choose from. means more stress and hovering for the mother, which is kind of not the point of BLW. of course, dd hated hers and it cost £30 so i am probably biased in this regard.

you mean bumbos there aitch?

is it one of these funny looking wooden ones?
I put MP up to the table in his, only use his table for messy foods.

yes, shaped like a z

out highchair cost £12.99 in Ikea. you can have a tray or you can remove the tray and pull it right up to the table. it's easy to clean and cheap cheap cheap. (if you look at the blog photos you'll see it's a pretty popular model.) not quite as pretty as the tripp-trapp, but i think it is cool.

DS LOVES his.... he thinks hes all grown up. Alot of picking food up from the mat though! Ill get the highchair back out tomorrow. My HV though my bumbo was a potty!!

my dd thinks her bumbo is a potty! she strains so much to get out of it she poos.

yes, bumbos, not tripp-trapps! (sorry, i always forget that this isn't eamil and other people write stuff in the interim).
