Apr. 2nd, 2007 02:42 pmWell, pear puree was a complete success! Lucas wolfed down just under half a pear (despite it not being completely ripe) and had all his milk, too. Best of all, he grabbed the spoon and shoved it into his mouth and licked puree off his fingers too :D Not sure I'll bother following the weaning schedules too slavishly; I can't bear the thought of giving him baby rice tomorrow after seeing how much he enjoyed the pear. I wouldn't eat baby rice, so why on earth should I make him eat the horrid stuff?
I'm also contemplating reducing the amount of milk he has at his 11pm feed. We usually have to wake him up for it, and he rarely takes a full bottle.... I could probably drop it completely but since we've just started weaning and tooth-brushing I don't fancy overloading him with completely new things. Speaking of teeth, he has two now, and I'm supposed to be starting him off on a sippy cup to protect them from decay. Happily the Avent magic cup spouts can be used with the normal bottles as well as the snazzy beakers, so we can save some money there.
