I think we are back on track!!!

So I think that we might be on track again with this eating solids thing. I have been waiting to say anything till we got a couple of days in, Alyzea likes to make me think that we are starting to do something new and then when I think everything is going good she stops. It never fails....

She shows interest in food, always have. These last few months I was just not able to to get her to eat like she should. I was scared to do what others mothers said, like giving her chunkier foods. I tried to give her a really small piece of an apple and she gagged on it. I had it in my mind that I wasnt going to feed her chunkier foods and risk having her choke. I would rather her have to see a specialist then something bad happen to her.

Her eating her food this morning
Well on Thursday last week I took a banana cut off a piece and mashed it up. Gave her a bite and she loved it. She was eating it and was having no problems with choking. So I figured what the heck lets add some fruits to the banana. I added Apples and blueberries and she ate almost all of it. Seeing that she was eating her foods like this I wanted to make sure that having banana's in it wasnt going to be a problem. So I called her doctor to check, and they told me that I was in the clear to have her eat like this. 

So for the last few days Alyzea has been eating like she did when she was 4 months old. Yesterday I also introduce those Gerber's yogurt bites, I break them into smaller pieces and she loves those. I am just happy to see that she has started to eat again.   




A new face she has started to make
