BLW and cereal

We do self feeding like this he loves taking fistfuls it's messy but fun, I offer a few pre loaded spoons too as practice but for now I think using hands is fine

@Flo oh man so much mess! Don’t know if I can do it again. I shall have a think!

My girl HATES weetabix on her hands so I preload the spoons for her and she feeds herself x

We do a bit of both, so bubs sticks in his hands in it and looks disgusted with me and then I spoon feed him, then he grabs the spoon and feeds himself, it’s a journey haha. I will say I only prepare maybe half a Weetabix first and then see if he wants more to try minimise the mess, but my son isn’t a big eater yet

I use two spoons, I preload them and just keep swapping spoons with him til he’s done x

I don’t do weetabix because of the mess 😂 I give chunky porridge though, she uses her hands

I can’t tolerate mess 😝 This is the meal I load spoons for.

I’m eager to try!! Which milk do you ladies use?

@Salli full fat cows milk. You should! xx

Mix of both but you can make weetabix balls with banana, fry them and they can grab and eat ! X

@Kerry oooh tell me more about these. Is there milk involved in making them? And air fry?

@Charlotte I did banana, weetabix crushed, added a bit of peanut butter and rolled them in coconut flakes but honestly you can just mix weetabix with a bit of a fruit pouch and as long as it forms a ball all good! Yeah can air fry or leave as is x

@Kerry oh fabulous. I’ll give these a go. I guess they could be batch made and frozen potentially too?!

@Charlotte yeah I always have !x

@Elsa thank youuuu!!! I’ve been avoiding milk as I thought it was “too soon”😂😂😂

@Salli no you are good to add in food. Just don’t replace breastmilk/ formula until one!

@Elsa amazing! Will keep that in mind xx
