I’ve been getting bombarded with ads for food pouches containing free range turkey, wild caught salmon, etc. My pediatrician recommends just fruit, veggies and grains. I noticed you didn’t mention anything about meat/seafood for Olivia – what is your take? Wait until she is ready for stage 3 and just give the real thing?

I’m a long time reader but never commented. This post is wonderful!!!! My youngest just turned 6 months and I have never heard of baby lead weaning. This is fascinating. Also I never thought to add spices to my baby’s food! I love these ideas. I always appreciate your honesty in posts. Things are not always perfect and you are super relatable. I also had HA and you helped get me through it!

KUDOS TO YOU, you should be SO INCREDIBLY proud of yourself – you’re the only other person I know who persevered with pumping and trying to nurse, and succeeded. My son was born three weeks early and was in the NICU for a week. They of course gave him bottles (of my breastmilk) and the nightmare began. Once they have a bottle you’re screwed. My son was about the same age as your daughter when I finally, FINALLY was able to rid myself of being tethered to a pump and was nursing successfully. It was the hardest thing I’ve ever done. I then enjoyed it SO MUCH that I didn’t start my son on solids till about 10 months! I just loved it so much and my son was doing so well with just the breastmilk. I’m actually glad I waited because I didn’t have to do as much purées and mashing. Enjoy this time with your baby – mine is eight years old now!

Thank you for sharing! We’re weeks away from the 6 month mark and I’ve been having nightmares about introducing solids. It’s so great to read your approach and experience with Olivia! Looking forward to some baby food recipes.

Thank you for this post! It was after reading that I realized we probably need some silicone bibs and fast. I was giving myself headaches trying to wash chunks of sweet potato out of fabric bibs. I got a vitamix specifically to make baby food and boy am I using it almost every day! I make a huge batch of baby food for the week in it, then use the immersion blender to puree any chunks I’ve missed. Whatever is leftover goes into my morning breakfasts so we end up eating almost the same things
