ice is beginning to eat solid food


ice has just turned 5 months last sept 9. so we started giving her solid food in addition to milk. we milled the rice so it becomes like a rice powder or something. we cook it into a very soft porridge and mix some mashed vegies, egg, or flaked fish. we feed her solid food twice a day at the moment, in the morning and during lunch. we also occasionally give her soft biscuits for her to munch sometimes to avoid her from thumbsucking instead. i am the one who gives her her breakfast before i go to work. i get amused whenever i feed her. she gets excited whenever she sees the spoon. she swallows the food quickly. but we try to control the food we give her because her stomach still does not digest that well.

maybe, we have done something wrong in training rain to eat that caused her to become a picky-eater. i have not been that keen on her diet before. or maybe that's just the way she is. but either way, i am trying to get facts on children diet to do it right with ice this time.

i have bumped into a nice website www.wholesomebabyfood.com on baby diet and found this.

here's what i learned and intend to give her. for more about this, click here
