Purée Utensils

following cuz dr wants us to spoon feed breastmilk to help her gain more weight. we're in the 15 percentile at 4 months. she's 12lbs 9oz

also dr doesn't want us feeding purees till she's 5 1/2 months

We have the munchkin spoons, and I love them. https://www.walmart.com/ip/20970624?sid=2698b073-e846-468c-a24f-8325f2232acc

@naya wait my daughter is 12lbs 4oz at 4 months and our pediatrician said that's completely normal?

@naya they recommended we start early because she has food allergies so we're introducing foods slowly to look for reactions

@Madeline interesting. the dr wasn't as pushy this appt about supplementing cuz we told the dr she doesn't like taking bottles anymore, no matter if it's breastmilk or formula so that seemed to make the dr let up a bit. maybe also she is advanced in her growth curve. our dr is also very old school Indian. told us to put a pillow under her to prop her up at night while she's sleeping so she doesn't roll on her stomach 😳

like hell no...def not safer than sleeping on her stomach

@naya that is interesting! She's gained weight every appointment while also having bad reflux so maybe that's why mines not as concerned? idk it's crazy how different doctors can be!

@Madeline average weight for baby girls is 11.2-17.9lbs. our babies are fine!

I used the kiinde system with my 1st born and I’m using again this time. The bags can be used for both milk and food and they have the different attachments for the nipples, spoons, and sippy top/spouts. I made my first batch of sweet potato purée this week and I’m freezing them and thaw a pouch as I go.
