Hi all,
DS2 is 11 months old and just really taking an interest in solids in the last month. I'm so excited about that but I wish it were going faster! I don't remember what it was like with my first, but he was definitely eating more at this age. And then I watch other babies of the same age happily eating everything they're offered. My son eats a little and then plays with it or throws it on the floor.
He has severe eczema which seems to be triggered by wheat, dairy, eggs and nightshades, so I'm avoiding all of these things and keeping them out of his diet, too. I guess I'm eager for him to be eating more because I'm finding the restricted diet to be difficult for me. I know he'll eat in his own time, and I know that the slow start is best for him with the eczema/food sensitivites...but I'm ready for him to be less dependant on me for calories!
Anyone in the same boat?
