Yep it’s a graphic novel. I got it from bookshop but I’m sure you could find it at any bookstore

@@wildflowersandwonderment thank you!!

Thanks for the comment. But actually it is okay to give babies small amounts of water with their food starting at around 6 months. I have talked to multiple professionals about it. But you could always put milk in a cup at meals if you feel better about it

He’s in basically a high chair (it’s a Tripp trapp with high chair attachment). He sits mostly independently. The most important part about seated stability is that being too wobbly can be a choking hazard (but I think there are ways to ensure they aren’t too wobbly even if they aren’t sitting completely independently) 💕

He was six months old. And it’s totally okay if they don’t swallow it. I didn’t think he swallowed any but noticed changes in his poop so somehow he did. Also there’s a saying that says “food before 1 is just for fun” which is and isn’t true but I like to remember it because they get most of their nutrition from milk or formula and food is more of a sensory experience and introduction to eating at this age

I’m actually a huge fan of pocket diapers 💕

I recently made one just out of a big box! I had him paint it and then put little battery powered lights in it and a blanket for a rug, cut a window to make it extra cool, and placed a basket with a couple of books next to it! He likes it even better than this one!

If they are old enough to eat I would let them. Even just playing with the food is a great sensory experience and precursor to eating 💕

Good to know! Thanks for sharing

That’s ridiculous lmao People window shop all the time….& the fact that you’re seriously trying to say it’ll get employees in trouble is goofy af 😂

Window shopping my friend. Plus pet stores often mistreat their animals and just toss the live fish out in the trash, so I mean do we really wanna defend that?

I didn’t just peeled it! 💕

Thanks 💕

Our little puppy 💕

I would do a bit of both. I would start putting food in front of her when she’s eating. She might just play with it or smush it around but that is an important step in learning for babies❤️

Thank you so much for your reply ❤ my baby has been feeding herself for a while now

50 years ago we didn’t have the notion of baby led weaning. Food had nothing to do with weaning. A high chair at the dinner table was all we needed. Try corn on the cob. Or a pork rib. A broccoli stalk. Anything with a good handle. I loved the idea above of a large piece of steak to gnaw on.

My toddlers would make a 6 course dinner IMMEDIATELY 😂

I supervise him. My toddler just turned 2 and he is finally out of that phase. A few months ago he probably would’ve tried to eat it. So I guess it depends on knowing your own child and how confident you feel in providing an activity like this.

Thank you!! I’m going to try this!!

Another trick is to put it in a shoebox or other small cardboard box on the counter fir a day. I discovered this by accident when I was trying to keep the avocado away from something else on the counter and had a small box that an ornament had come in. I was amazed.

This was right around 6 months ❤️

He pretty much ate the zucchini off of the skin and I took the skin away quickly as he finished

Honestly it’s very hard but always start off small !!mines is 6 months and started him off with rice and scrambled eggs,just start with meals easy and small to consume like this and only give them a little at a time they eventually will learn to chew and swallow on their own.I also cut half a steak and let him go to town on it !lol he loves it,but stuff like that is tender ya know they can’t chew off pieces of meat like steak so he just sucks on it and slowly eats away at it lol (purée foods are also great!)

@jasminesmith7414 oh thank you so much!! I never thought of giving her a large piece of steak to help her practice! The eggs are another great idea! I'm comfortable with scrambled eggs for sure! I appreciate the advice! <3

Such a normal fear!! I did a cpr class and brushed up on it with a couple videos just before. Plus I was told by an ot that babies who learn to eat solids are actually less likely to choke as they get a little older because they are more used to it. They definitely gag a bit when eating solids young - it’s different from choking but can also seem a bit scary at first

Go for it!

Thanks for watching!

Thanks! Unripe avocados are so frustrating! ❤️

Gahhh love them so much 🥹❤️

And the mug changes to zombies when it’s hot!

@@wildflowersandwonderment ooooo!

This was I think the week before he turned 6 months. 6 months is a general rule of thumb but we started a little earlier with our pediatrician on board because he was so interested in food
