We kept the same feeding schedule at home and out. Purees were the toughest part for us. I always had to bring a cool pack and then find a way to defrost/warm it up. Usually we would ask for a bowl of hot water and slooooowly warm it or if they had a microwave handy, I would heat it up that way. If we knew that we were going to feed right away (within 30-45 minutes), I would warm up the food before we left and house and keep it warm in the warmer pack.</p> <p>It got so much easier when he started eating normal adult food! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-start-feeding-lo-solids-when-out-and-about#post-89444 Thu, 08 Mar 2012 18:00:37 +0000 BoogieBea 89444@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I bing food with me as well. But I'll bring pouch or jar food - that way I don't have to worry about it being too cold. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-start-feeding-lo-solids-when-out-and-about#post-89440 Thu, 08 Mar 2012 17:55:28 +0000 cupcakemama 89440@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Rubies: woo hoo! Well done LO and well done Mum! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-start-feeding-lo-solids-when-out-and-about#post-89436 Thu, 08 Mar 2012 17:52:55 +0000 Rubies 89436@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Well, we went out today and I brought food! She gobbled it up well and didn't even mind that her cereal was cold - such a good girl. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-start-feeding-lo-solids-when-out-and-about#post-89434 Thu, 08 Mar 2012 17:50:42 +0000 cupcakemama 89434@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am the same as @andrea.</p> <p>I am also a mean mum as I make LO have food and bottles cold from the fridge. Sometimes at home I warm it slightly.</p> <p>If I am going to be out and about at a meal time then I do find jarred food easier - to transport and less mess. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-start-feeding-lo-solids-when-out-and-about#post-88990 Thu, 08 Mar 2012 08:34:44 +0000 chopsuey 88990@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I started taking food with us whenever we went out. We would go directly to the restaurant from home so I would just heat her food up and it would cool down on our drive. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-start-feeding-lo-solids-when-out-and-about#post-88986 Thu, 08 Mar 2012 08:32:50 +0000 heffalump 88986@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Rubies: I'm with you, I've been skipping meals too if we're out. Sometimes I'll bring it, but sometimes I don't. It's hard because I make her food so I keep it in the fridge, and at home I stick it in the microwave for a few seconds to warm it up. I can't do that when I'm out. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-start-feeding-lo-solids-when-out-and-about#post-88940 Thu, 08 Mar 2012 07:40:12 +0000 Andrea 88940@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Rubies: haha. yes, food...a whole new ball game! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-start-feeding-lo-solids-when-out-and-about#post-88937 Thu, 08 Mar 2012 07:34:56 +0000 Rubies 88937@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>You know, just when something starts to get "easy", everything changes on you! Babies...Who knew?? ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-start-feeding-lo-solids-when-out-and-about#post-88927 Thu, 08 Mar 2012 07:22:24 +0000 looch 88927@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did the same as @Andrea. When I was out and it was mealtime, I just brought his food. I didn't want him to get confused with eating differently when we were out. First few times were bumpy, but then I figured out what I was doing and had a little system. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-start-feeding-lo-solids-when-out-and-about#post-88926 Thu, 08 Mar 2012 07:18:25 +0000 Andrea 88926@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I stuck to the same solids schedule when we were out. So if you're going to be out at that time, then yes, bring the food. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-start-feeding-lo-solids-when-out-and-about#post-88924 Thu, 08 Mar 2012 07:05:38 +0000 Rubies 88924@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So, LO is eating two meals of solids every day with breastfeeding. It never crossed my mind that soon I'll have to start bringing food with me when I am out. When did you start doing this?</p> <p>Since LO started solids, I still only breastfeed her when out in public. Is this okay? Do LOs get hungry? </p>
