I haven't been blogging for a while. Did ya miss me? Huhu.
Now Maryam has passed 6 months of age and has eaten a variety of foods. Alhamdulillah she isn't a fussy eater I can conclude, as she gobbles down nearly everything we spoon her so far. She weighed 7.0kg about a month ago, don't know how much has she put on (or off :S) now that she has weaned huhu.
What have I given her for the past roughly a fortnight?
- Carrot + breastmilk puree
- Butternut squash + apple puree
- Mango puree
- Butternut squash + pear + carrot puree
- Heinz Original Rusks biscuit + breastmilk
- Papaya puree
- Sweet potato + carrot + apple puree
- Sweet potato + carrot + apple + pear puree
- Banana puree
Of all the above Maryam doesn't particularly fancy papayas. She didn't show much interest in the carrot + breastmilk puree either. However she loves bananas and mangoes, just like her ummi for the latter hehe.
As for now I am alarmingly running out of ideas as to what should I give her next. I read about concerns regarding giving babies citrus fruits and berries so I am a bit worried to introduce her those. She is still waking up a few times at night, which I positively thought she wouldn't once she starts eating.
Hmm, I am thinking I probably will begin giving her baby rice next week, with some meat too i.e. chicken. Also she hasn't had a taste of green vegetables yet, better do it soon. Hope she'll enjoy the new recipe and flavours :). InsyaAllah.
