Hey girls So, ds is 10 months, and WILL NOT eat off a spoon. So, the concerns I am having are iron, protein and high calorie foods. He is a pretty good eater, but won't eat broccoli or infant cereal...I don't know what else is high in Iron...and he won't eat meat...unless I hide it in grilled cheese, which is fine, but annoying! and then the other day my sister points out that i feed him such healthy stuff that I am not giving him many calories! I am wondering now....a typical supper will consist of green beans, diced and baked sweet potato...maybe a bit of squash..and some blueberries...I try to give him meat, nope, won't eat cottage cheese, but loves cubed cheese...should I be concerned? Any ideas for high calorie foods? he won't eat much banana anymore either...TIA!!!!

I can't help a whole lot (I am the furthest thing from a nutritionist) but as far as iron goes will he eat beans? Like lentil, kidney, chickpeas ... things he could just feed himself right from the tray?

I was thinking the same thing, tried beans this weekend and they went over pretty well, but he also has woke up more often SCREAMING So, don't know if it was because of the beans or not...I fed them to him at lunch, so you would think not....think I'll take a break from them and try again later. Thanks for the reply!

So ... have you found anything else? Was it the beans that made him wake up more? Sorry for the 10 questions, LOL!
I misplaced the link to this forum and I am so excited to have it back ... can you tell, ha ha! I am having some issues trying to find foods that Alissa will eat ... she doesn't like the Junior Jarred foods because of the chuncks ... but she will eat chunks of certain foods from her tray. I am thinking she just doesn't like it all mixed together, can't really blame her though! Sorry, I am rambling. I just realized that it is 1:24am ... I am off to bed!
