First Foods ... Get Ready for a Mess!

My son having his first bite of Squash (I used Earth's Best / First Squash). He seems to not like it much by the face he is making but it is all new to him. He makes the funniest face and then chats with me about his experience.

Make sure to only feed baby one type of food at a time to watch for any food allergies. Over the past weekend we introduced cereal and my son loved it. I think it was because it was mixed with my breast milk. Have fun with it, baby may not seem to like the food but after a few tries he may love it. I have been told to start with vegetables first so he can grow to like them before the sweet fruits although there are many different thoughts on what to feed baby first. A book I read called "Real Food for Mother and Baby" recommends eggs or liver - I'm not sure I'm there yet though. For now I'll stick with organic brown rice and Earth's Best foods for baby.
