So I knew the day would come when my daughter would need more than just breast milk to survive, well we have hit that point. We dove in head first to the adventure of feeding with a spoon. I must say I am glad we had the camera and video ready, it was a "must" capture moment. First step was to get out the fantastic high chair and make sure we knew how it worked, these things are more complicated these days. Brinlie has plenty of room to grow in this high chair, but with a little recline mode, she fit great. We put a bib on...and off we go, but wait, how much, mix with? Well we mixed with breast milk, b/c we know that she is not allergic to that. We started with 1 tbsp cereal, 3 tbsp breast milk. However, rice cereal does dissolve in breast milk, so you must be quick.
Well off we went...Brinlie loved staring at the spoon, she thought that was so cool. She actually did really good and loved the taste of the cereal. She did get impatient with us, as we could not feed it to her quick enough. It was funny...she would scream when we took the spook away. Hope her body takes this well!
