We introduced Abigail to rice cereal at 6 months old. Since that time she has been pretty indifferent about eating it. I started trying to feed her after I nursed her. My intention was that I wouldn't have to worry too much about my milk supply diminishing. After a couple weeks I decided that she just wasn't hungry for it so I tried before I nursed her. We seemed to have a little more success with that but still not the eager eating that I thought would happen. After a few weeks of trying Adam and I decided that maybe another food added to the cereal would make it more appetizing.
Thank you to Frances for gifting us some peas that Teresa wasn't interested in. Abigail seems very fond of them! Since their introduction 5 days ago we have had a great time watching her eating them up like crazy!
She also has NO problem letting us know when she has had her fill!
As a side note if anyone has any thoughs...
Abigail has a runny nose. Today is day three of it. She seems to be a little stuffy and cold-like but overall in good spirits. Do we think this is just some of the yuck that is going around(Adam was under the weather last week) or could this be a reaction to the peas?
