It seemed like it would be too dry for her and she kept spitting it back up when we tried shredded turkey. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-good-blw-foods-to-start-with#post-471044 Sun, 30 Dec 2012 13:40:14 +0000 Bao 471044@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Rainbow Sprinkles: yes I think that's a great idea :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-good-blw-foods-to-start-with#post-471011 Sun, 30 Dec 2012 13:22:12 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 471011@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Bao: I would definitely start with purees though and ease your way into it. It helped with my peace of mind! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-good-blw-foods-to-start-with#post-471010 Sun, 30 Dec 2012 13:20:59 +0000 Bao 471010@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Rainbow Sprinkles: Wow thank you for sharing!! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-good-blw-foods-to-start-with#post-471002 Sun, 30 Dec 2012 13:18:17 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 471002@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Bao: we started with purees first at 4.5 months. Around 5.5 months we started giving her bites of "real" food. She liked it so much more! We slowly started introducing more and more foods and having her sit with us at meal times.<br /> She is 7.5 months now and eats what we eat. For example, last night it was whole grain spaghetti with turkey meat in red sauce. She loved it!<br /> It's really surprising how well babies can "chew" their food, even with no teeth!<br /> We don't even do purees anymore....just applesauce and yogurt! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-good-blw-foods-to-start-with#post-470994 Sun, 30 Dec 2012 13:14:08 +0000 Bao 470994@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Rainbow Sprinkles: wow at 7 months? LO is 4 months and it seems weird to think in a couple of months she can be eating what we eat. When did you start BLW? Good idea about the eggplant I will definitely be trying that one! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-good-blw-foods-to-start-with#post-470986 Sun, 30 Dec 2012 13:09:41 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 470986@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Baked yam and potato, avocado (it was too slimy for lo to fed herself at first), strips of toast with baby food or jam on top, soft pears ( we boiled them), and eggplant. When you cook eggplant it becomes this really light texture that dissolves in the baby's mouth.perfect for BLW!</p> <p>Now at seven months she loves shredded chicken, pancakes, scrambled eggs, Cheese sticks, sliced cucumbers. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-good-blw-foods-to-start-with#post-470982 Sun, 30 Dec 2012 13:07:05 +0000 pregnantbee 470982@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We just started and have given banana and baked yam cut into fries. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-good-blw-foods-to-start-with#post-470959 Sun, 30 Dec 2012 12:49:35 +0000 autumnlove 470959@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Bananas and avocado! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-good-blw-foods-to-start-with#post-470944 Sun, 30 Dec 2012 12:38:45 +0000 Bao 470944@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am looking for good foods to start off with when doing BLW. What did you start with? What are some of your LO's favorites now? </p>
