No appetite again...

Sigh...this few days are tough again, Tromson has no appetite.
Mommy gives him puree or finger food, he rejects all
The good news is he likes plain water haha...eventhough he still learning to use straw, mommy gives plain water through srynge

This week, mommy just makes fruits puree just for standby

- Pear puree
- Avocado pear puree
- melon puree

Purple puree

The food theme for this week will be purple
Mommy has made puree stocks for this week from mix fruits and vegies

 

Fruits
- Mix melon blueberry
- mix apple pear

 

Vegies
- Mix purple sweet potato, bell pepper, wintermelon, tomato
- Mix honey sweet potato, french beans,edamame
- Mix purple and honey sweet potato, broccoli, edamame

 

Hope tromson likes it

 

Back to puree...

After three days his appetite was back to normal again and no longer teething, mommy prepared him puree again.
The reason behind is, it's faster and save time.
When mommy do BLW to him, it spends half an hour to watch over him, then must clean him and his tray with small intakes and more wastage.
In addition, koko Richie also wants to be accompanied so mommy can't spend much time only feeding Tromson.

So, this week will be mixture vegies and fruits

Vegies :

- mix sweet potato, broccoli and tomato
- mix carrot, cauliflower and corn

Fruits :

- mix peach and banana
- mix papaya and pear

Hopefully this week's intake is good

Verdict of root vegies

Basically he's okay with the taste of potato, sweet potato and pumpkin
But for texture wise, he prefers pumpkin, potato and the last is sweet potato

This morning, mommy gives him pumpkin cauliflower mixture and he finishes the whole bowl

 

 

 

 

Avocado melon puree (17 Feb 2014)

Even though Tromson still has this tongue thrust reflex, mommy never gives up, mommy gives him try of solid food eventhough he eats a little bit only.

This morning, mommy gives avocado melon puree. The taste is very nice, milky, creamy and sweet
But he takes only few spoons only, haiyahhh...
and for plain water, mommy gives him through srynge. Likes it or not, he must try to drink plain water for his own good

1 ripe avocado
3 slices melon
blended together with hand mixer

Verdict of papaya and watermelon puree

Mommy tried mashed papaya to Tromson, he actually likes the taste but since it's mashed, sometimes he feels like choking...

When mommy gives him mashed watermelon, he likes the taste not the texture since it's mashed, he feels like choking every time he eats the watermelon flesh and loves the watermelon juice.

Therefore, today mommy makes watermelon puree by blending it with hand mixer and he loves it, he finishes the whole bowl

3 slice watermelon
blended with hand mixer, no need to add water since watermelon is very juicy

Assorted root vegies puree

Next week mommy has planned to make him experiment with root vegies
Mommy made 9 cubes for a week or so survival hehe
The root vegies are sweet potato, potato and pumpkin, and to make the mixture not too sweet or bland, mommy added carrots and cauliflowers

So here we go
First puree : sweet potato cauliflower puree ( 4 cubes )

The second puree : potato carrot puree ( 3 cubes )

The third puree : pumpkin cauliflower puree ( 2 cubes )

Pear papaya puree

This fruits mixture is his favorite so far, cos of natural sweetness

1 pear, cooked till soft then blended
1 slice ripe papaya, mashed
Mix both together
First trial 2 tsp

Pure pear puree

Today, mommy will give him pure pear puree. Let's see whether he enjoys it. it's kinda sweet taste though

1 golden pear
steamed/boiled with little water
blended with hand mixer and add boiled water for texture consistency

Trying apple pear puree

Yesterday, mommy gave a mixture apple pear puree since Tromson didn't poo for few days. He doesn't really like it perhaps the apple is a bit sour. But as result he poo a lot and the texture changes too. It's no more creamy watery, it's more paste like and smelly hehe...

Third solid food - apple puree (1 Feb 2014)

This morning, mommy made apple puree for Trom, it's sweet and a bit sour apple. Mommy made from one fuji apple, boiled for few minutes then blended it with hand mixer then add boiled water to make thinner texture. Mommy divided the mixture to three containers.
At first, he found the taste is different from carrot which is sweeter but he asked for more and can finish the whole bowl.

1 fuji apple
steamed/boiled with little water
blended with hand mixer and add boiled water for texture consistency
First Trial : 1 tsp of apple puree and mixed with cooling water

Second solid food - carrot puree

Tromson's second solid food is carrot puree. At first mommy made it a bit thick and he has a bit difficulty to swallow it so mommy added water to make it thinner and he likes it

1 carrot
steamed/boiled with little water
blended with hand mixer and add boiled water for texture consistency
