Hello little foodies!
This week we have had a very mobile Jackson. All he wanted to do was pull himself up and stand.
He also didn’t like being in his highchair for long and sometimes wanted me to carry him and feed him the rest of his meals or sometimes we would feed him in his walker.
Although he didn’t exactly self feed, I still follow his cues and let him decide if he wants to eat or not.
If he was in his walker, he would roam around and come back to me when he wanted more food. His walker has a snack tray and I would put his food onto the tray and he would feed himself, or I would hold the food out in front of him and he would grab my hand and guide the food into his mouth.
If I was carrying him, I would hold the food out in front of him and let him decide if he wants it or not. If he does, he would open his mouth or grab my hand and guide the food to his mouth. If he isn’t hungry anymore, he would look away or turn his head away when I held the food out for him to see.
I know it’s not ideal, but I’m sure its just a phase since he has just started moving more and doesn’t want to stay put in one spot for long.
Any way, here is what Jackson ate this week:
Breakfast
Lunch/Dinner
We had quite a few new dishes this week and also tried a non-breakfast food for breakfast because Jackson wasn’t eating his breakfast (except for the fruit).
Overall we had a good eating week. Although Jackson wanted to be fed by me a lot this week, he ate a lot because of it. I feel like he also knew that he will get full faster if mummy fed him.
Hope you are all having a lovely week x
