Shawn rejects ‘SPOON’..How??

Nvr ever have I tot of tat Shawn will reject spoon… hahaha!! I always worry he reject or confuse nipple..reject bottle.. but now comes a bigger problem.. hope not..

 

Yty we started Shawn on the rice cereal plus breast milk…

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

first try in the afternoon.. 1pm… at first he was quite curious… then after 2 feed.. which he didn even swallow de..

he refuses to open his mouth le.. (Suck his lips inward… So cute …haha) so end up we pour everything into bottles plus few more ml of milk n let him drink it..

Sec try at 6.30pm.. I tot afternoon try wasn’t reali a good try since he only take abt 3 spoon.. so I prepare the cereal but he still making noise when we try 1st spoon.. we tot mayb he is too hungry le.. so I brought him into my room to latch on.. for 15min.. then bring him out to try… once he see the spoon..he started crying le.. reali cry de lol..with tears rollin down his cheek … in the end..we give up again… pour into bottle n feed him again…

We decided to try him on spoon with water first.. shall c how after that…

Any advice how to encourage bb to start on solid ah??

  4. i start after 6mth... coz ada by then alreadi keeps moving her mouth whenever we r having meals. so we thot she is ready. the first one i try is quite watery, then slowly more solid. spoon feeding is a skill to be taught to them.. they have to learn. i demo to ada while feeding her, show her how to swallow.. try again k. :) what spoon u use? i use pigeon one, quite soft one..
