BLW-ing (Baby-Led Weaning)..

inshort:
not puree-ing food... give finger food to baby.. something die boleh pegang..
and not feeding the baby.. tak suap.... letting him feed himself..


at first we didnt have a seat n tray...
had to use the bumbo seat...
no sense buying the tray, as kejap lagi dah tak muat..
so awal2 tu, food keep falling down.. he couldnt reach for it again..
also he dowant to sit in the bumbo for too long...
also.. having problems gripping the food...
but I guess thats just expected laa.... but we kept at it...
biar je pegang food.. kalau jatuh, bagi balik die pegang...
didnt eat much la.. suck sometimes.. kalau tergigit big chunk, he spits it out
the thing he love most is mangga (manis and masak)..
but having problem slipping even with half skin intact..


but yesterday we got the fisher price healthy care booster seat..
came highly recommended...
if the dining table is ever used, i would have just gotten the ikea antilop chair.. cheap!!
but aku n rafiq tak penah makan atas meja... maybe 1-2 times a year...
so i went for the booster seat..


so tonight....
aku + rafiq makan nan + tandoori atas lantai.. biar je die play atas mat..
aku cam malas nak kemas2 .. BLW is messy....
so tonight takde plan bagi die food..
tapi die dok tengok kitorang makan... terliur2...
kesian.. aku boh la dalam booster seat...
gave 1 farleys rusk... malas aa nak masak...
also rusk looks deceivingly like our nan..
terasa la die makan cam kitorang makan..
usually he will just nibble and suck and throw away.. then ill pickup and eat it..
and ill eat the rest in the package too hahahah..
so basically kitorang dah beli 3-4 kali..
amir makan 3-4 gigit.. aku makan satu pakej :P


anyways.. bagi je rusk...
but today ade improvement... usually kalau terbite off.. he will spit out...
but today.. bite off and continues to bite and bite.... while perati rafiq makan..
byk gak yg spit out.. but yg dimakan more than usual...
so ade kemajuan hari ini... video ade nanti post...

1st pic, in the safety 1st deluxe care booster seat which I dont like.. (was a gift)

2nd pic, ... manggaa.. in bumboo, leceh no tray

as seen in the 3rd pic, today , u cant even see the rusk anymore....


morale of the story: BUY a freakin bib!!! or bukak baju seblum BLW!!
