We started solids again this weekend. We started Isla on
sweet potatoes a month ago, but her little tummy was not ready for big girl
food just yet. She had a lot of trouble digesting it and a lot of tummy pain.
Since she was about 3-4 weeks old, she’s struggled with gas pains. She was a
little colicky in her earlier months. For several weeks, the only thing that
would console her was daddy’s shoulder. Then we switched gripe water brands to
Mommy’s Bliss and this really seemed to help.
Lately, we could tell she was very interested in eating. She
watched us as we ate so attentively and started reaching for our bites. This
weekend, we decided to try again. We tried carrots. We videoed it this time and
it was hilarious. She would take a bite, scrunch up her little button nose and
shake all over as if they were sour! They were really sweet. I tried them out
after we pureed them just to make sure they were tasty. She ate maybe a
teaspoon full on Saturday and Sunday.
I have to say… I am not digging the dirty
diapers that accompany solid foods! Haha.
She still had some stomach issues with the carrots so we’re going to
take it slow with little bits each day this week. Next up on the palate, peas!
Yum :)
