We only get more and more impressed by BLW. At 8 months old, Art will happily eat most things, or at least give them a go. He took a thick Scotch broth directly from the bowl last week, big handfuls of it, and didn’t chuck the bowl around until it was empty! I mean, honestly, eating soup from a bowl by himself at 8 months, that really is impressive.
I’m struggling to think of things he hasn’t eaten to offer him, which is pretty amazing at 8 months old. Oh, the fish pie from the BLW Cookbook was a massive success, we used smoked (undyed) haddock and it really was very tasty.
I always said that I wouldn’t give my child separate meals to us, they will eat what we have or go hungry, none of this making different meals for the family in this house, but I meant when kids are older, not a baby, I never envisaged how successful this was going to be. Love it.
If you’re out there contemplating, stop thinking, just give it a go!
