It is kind of hard to train a baby to eat while on vacation. i don't recommend it! but spencer handled it well, like he does so many things. He couldn't quite hold it together while we were enjoying our meals at resturaunts in front of him, so we decided to start bringing food for him. Unfortunatly, that meant that mommy didn't get to eat much of her food hot, but that's the sacrifice we make, i suppose!
Spencer did get started on sweet potatoes on our vacation. i was unsure if it was a good idea, and of course, we didn't have fresh, but we made do. And boy does ho love him some sweet potatoes! By day 2, he could polish off a whole gerber container (2 oz i think) in no time flat...and eat some oatmeal on top of that!
However, I think we might have overdone it and now his tummy isn't running all that smoothly, but hopefully we will get it all straightened out!
It does look like we are at about the end of the breastfeeding though, as I don't seem able to make enough for him these days. He is constantly hungry, even with all the solids he is eating, so i think we are going to switch to formula at least during the day, to see how it all works. My goal was to make it to 6 months, and we are just 2 weeks away, so i think that is pretty close!
Now we just have to decide if all the rumors about soy formula are true and see if he might want to switch to milk based formula...
