Bought organic broccoli, steam the flower parts and tried to make puree broccoli for RaeAnne today but she hates it. Keeps making the want to puke face. 
Wonder if it's because it's not soft enough. Anyone using braun handheld blender? How come some parts of the broccoli can't be pureed until smooth. Only the broccoli stuck under the blade is softest. End up I can only scrap those part to feed. Anyone has the same experience?

Anyone has simple veg stock recipe to share? Just realised I bought too much veg, heng cai, broccoli, carrot and tofu. Wonder if I can make veg stock from there then use it to make porridge? Can add dried scallop to make it more sweet?

Hi mummies,
Can you share your feeding schedule? Just brought Zachy for his 9 month assessment. PD found that his weight is less than satisfactory (25th percentile). Was wondering if I fed him too little. I remembered Kam or Wendy shared sometime back..
I'm also thinking of getting him to eat more. Any baby food book to recommend? Thanks a lot!!

Blackbatz, how heavy is Zachy? RaeAnne is also rather slim,was 8 kg at 8mths, was wondering if we are not feeding her enough.
mcfluffy, i used the finger toothbrush for the kids once their 1st teeth popped out. according the the instructions on the first teeth toothpaste, can be used from 3 months onwards!
piglet, my kids oni guai guai sit in the bumbo for 2 months, nowadays if put in they can manage to wriggle and squirm and get out of it in a highly dangerous manner!

hum, come to think of it, i think this baby is rather big sized... clothes that fit my #1 at 10m, this baby can't wear at 8m. Now he's wearing rompers sized 18m (I prefer to let him wear rompers so that his tummy doesn't get exposed)
but his weight gain before 6m was abt 500g per month. For my #1, it was 1kg a month. This baby no constipation whereas #1 didn't poo regularly.

morning mummies,
hmm..think my gal is the lightest. only 7.4kg at 9 mths old. seriously underweight?? fyi, she is still wearing her 3-6 mths romper. really help me to save money on clothings..hehe But I am not too worried, as she is happy and healthy. Guess she is small size like me as I was very small size when young too.

mummies, yesterday night I had no sleep.My gal woke up every hour to eat. Is it growth spurt?? "Yawn"
(
blessed baby
my baby has been waking up every hour too! on and off for the past month some more. I couldn't figure out whether she is really hungry, wanna suckle for comfort, overstimulated, teething, can't soothe herself back to sleep anymore or what. But I noticed when she wakes up she wails out loud with eyes still closed. Sometimes even toss and turn till she crying in sitting position. When I carry her, she will still be crying till I no choice put her to my breast then she will calm down. This clueless mama here still can't figure out what's wrong

kitsune,
For brocoli, I cooked both the florets and the stem. But I cut them up into small small ones before cooking. The japanese baby food book I have only uses the florets, which I think is wasting the poor stems. So I still use the stems.
Yes, when I use my braun handheld blender, some of the brocoli will get stuck and will not get blended properly. So I will use a plastic spoon, scrap those into the blade area and blend again. So it's blend, scrap, blend and scrap.. until all get blended up nicely.
My son still ok with brocoli. But I mixed it into the porridge for him. I read in a baby food book that u can mix brocoli with other more tasty/ sweet veg (like carrot?) to disgust its taste. Perhaps u want to give it a try?
My son is quite greedy. Anything also eats. =P

Blackbatz, 7.9kg does seem a bit on the small side hor. Did PD advise how to increase his weight?
WendyG, thanks for the update. Actually I've never bothered with organic veg but when I found out my MIL had been boiling all the veg first before putting into porridge to get rid of pesticides. I bo bian but to spend the $ on organic veg cos vit c is water soluble so by boiling first then throwing away the water, all the vitamin C is lost. But organic broccoli three times more expensive than normal broccoli. Oh ya, met up with my ex hall 4 hostel mates and one of them remembers you cos you were in her orientation group. Do you remember a Emily Leong?
Ah Capp, LOL, I got quite fed up cos I tried blending steamed carrot and steamed heng cai today and same problem. So, today, I got 'brainwashed' to buy a small blender at Isetan (the type with promoter with microphone) at $69.90. Hope it works better lor. By the way, RaeAnne's reaction was yucks to the carrot and heng cai though ILs already putting that into her porridge. Took some meat from MIL today, will try and make porridge for her tomorrow.

My mum has the same complain about my blender. For me, I just blend, scrap, blend, scrap....till I get most of the veg well blended. When I feed, I will use my spoon to sieve out those big pieces though.
I have stopped blending some veg like spinach. I chop them finely instead of blending. I am trying to encourage my son to bite instead of just swallow blindly.
Slowly slowly put in bit by bit so that RaeAnne will not detect anything unusual with her porridge =P
I intro egg yolk today. Plus a bit of button mushrooms & torfu =)
My son is quite greedy... nowadays whenever we eat, he will crawl over and wants a bite too. So I will give him some bread to nibble on to make him happy =)

Ah Capp, mine quite greedy too, cannot see us eat or else she will make noise. Today when I was eating pau, was quite tempted to feed her a bit of the bao skin. Mine got no teeth yet so cannot bite, realised her teething is quite slow, nearly 8.5 months liao, still no teeth.
Wait till I try my new blender then tell you whether good or not.
