Weaning Diaries // Week 3

Florence has been weaning for three weeks now, and she has finally started to gain on her weight centile again after dropping for the past few weeks. We are so happy with this news and it has made Chris and I feel even more confident with our decision to move Florence onto solids.

After two successful weeks of single vegetable purées we decided to start combining flavours and introducing a fruit purée after Florence’s breakfast bottle. 

Here is Florence’s food diary for week 3 -

Week 3	Breakfast – 9.00am	Lunch – 1.00pm	Dinner – 4.00pm	Bedtime – 7.00pm
Monday	Bottle Creamy Porridge	Bottle Sweet Potato and Broccoli Purée	Bottle	Bottle

Friday	Bottle Mango Purée	Bottle Potato and Broccoli Purée	Bottle	Bottle
Saturday	Bottle Strawberry Purée	Bottle Pea and Cauliflower Purée	Bottle	Bottle

Now that Florence has tried a few vegetable combinations we are going to introduce stronger flavours such as Asparagus, Spinach, Pepper, Tomato and Green Beans. We will continue to introduce new fruits at breakfast too.
