@madssdoug: Swipe to see what was offered vs what was eaten 🥣 We’re following baby-led weaning with responsive feeding. Milk feeds are still her primary nutrition; solids are about learning how to eat, exploring textures and gradually building confidence with food. 🦷 She’s just cut her first tooth, so meals today focused on comfort, familiarity and safe exploration. 🍞 Breakfast • Toast strips — one with mashed banana, blackberry & almond butter (allergen exposure + vitamin C from berries) • Toast with mashed avocado for healthy fats • Pineapple core — firm enough for mouthing and teething relief under supervision • Whole blackberry and ¼ strawberry in a resistive feeder for safe flavour exploration 🥒 Lunch • Cucumber quarters for grip and crunch • Frozen raspberries in a resistive feeder — soothing for sore gums and a vitamin C source 🍤 Dinner — ALLERGEN EXPOSURE • First time trying prawns (shellfish exposure) Prawns were cut very small and mashed into avocado for safety, as shellfish can be a choking hazard for babies when offered inappropriately • Cucumber quarters • Mango pit rolled in hemp seeds — hemp seeds provide non-heme iron, with vitamin C from mango to support absorption At this stage, not every meal looks “balanced” variety and exposure over time are what matter. Some days are about nutrients, some days are about comfort, and some days are about building confidence with new foods #startingsolids #blw #blwideas #whatmybabyeats #dayonaplate
