Solids Week 1: Rice Cereal and Oatmeal

Since we actually whipped out our nice camera for photos this week, I figured it'd be a nice separate post to talk about Nolan's first foray into solids. 



Last weekend (Saturday) he tried his first spoonful of rice cereal made very soupy with breast milk.


First food - Rice cereal at 23 weeks.
Consensus?

Mommy what IS this?? gross!

Not a fan.

Not happy

Hmm maybe he'll like another bite?

"Are you serious guys?"

coming out just as fast as it's being put in

No Gracias!

"Are you really trying more??"

Not tasting any better

Refusal kicks in

Turning away not interested

Death stare down

After much less success the next 3 days (trying to space out each food for allergy reasons), we tried oatmeal on Wednesday (24 weeks).

Ready for Food #2: Oatmeal

Promising first bite

Deciding whether he likes it....

Consensus: NOT A FAN!

"Mommy, why are you torturing me this week??"

'What just happened??"

Moral of the story: It was a rough week for solids. I felt bad after the Wednesday incident and gave it a break for the rest of the week. The good news is no allergic reactions to report... assuming enough went down the tube to even cause a reaction....We will re-visit oatmeal again tomorrow. Hopefully he comes around soon. Until then, we'll be enjoying and capturing his hilarious reaction faces :)
