Is it fair to make my kid eat stuff I don’t like? (aka P-E-A-S) I agree they’re gross. That’s one of the few baby foods that doesn’t taste like baby food but actually tastes like the disgusting thing it’s supposed to be.
Buuuut, senor fussy pants (because that’s who’s mom I turned out to be today) had some green beans today, AND HE LIKES IT! 
Why isn’t there any broccoli baby food? I’m talking the stage one, not mixed with anything and – don’t have to order from some crazy website somewhere.. Not that I’m going to get some, just wondering.
And here’s another one – if there are waterproof bibs with the little pockets, why do they even make the fabric ones you have to launder? What’s up with that?
Or – why doesn’t our feeding chair have FOUR wheels, instead of 2 on the back, making it impossible to move with one hand…??
Why isn’t there a product out there for getting baby puke and spit up out of carpets and upholstery?
Why do they make baby spoons bigger than baby mouths?
And in closing – anybody got some good baby food/feeding stories?
Broccoli and other cruciferous vegetables can cause gassiness, so babies aren’t fed them until 9-10 months old. The gassy chemical goes through breastmilk, so I try to avoid it the first few weeks of nursing, too.
As for the bib thing, I love my silicon ones. However, I have friends whose babies wear a cloth bib all day because they spit up so much, and changing a bib is easier for mommy than an entire outfit.
As for a story, I love the finger food stage. One time, don’t ask me how, Eli got a Cheerio on top of his head. His Cheerio crown stayed there the entire time until I finally removed it. It was so cute and very picture-worthy. : )
When exactly does the finger food stage start? I figure- sometime after he has more than 2 teeth? =) Everyone keeps trying to shove cookies/crackers at him, giving me a heart attack!
Странно, в россии есть пюре из брокколи. И стульчики чикоо на 4 колесах со стопперами.
Здесь тоже полно стульчиков с четырьмя колёсами. У нас просто супер пупер крутой 2-в-1 который ещё в качели превращается, в которых мы качались раза 4 без особого энтузиазма.. =)
Well you know I don’t have a kid, but still… Question for you… Have you considered making your own baby food? Just buy organic fruits/ veggies and purée? Should work I think…I’m planning on trying that someday.
I sure have considered it. And even bought a little steamer thing and everything…
Now, I don’t even cook for myself these days. And perhaps it is just because I am lacking the self-discipline, but I would much rather take a leisurely stroll to the grocery store with Niko and get him a whole variety of foods there, or order by the case from Diapers.com while he is sleeping, then mess around with that stuff in the kitchen. If you make it – you make a lot, and then you have to freeze it… Once he gets some teeth – I’ll just give him real food. =) For now – this is so much easier..
