Thanks Prawnie, Puffish, Amy, Lynn, Calamari, Summer's Mama and Stefy for your encouragement and sharing your tips on feeding bb semi-solids. I also kept the cereal constant (HT brown rice), changing only the fruit puree which I mixed into the cereal every 3 days. But so far, didn't yield much success as Dana does not like it - after 1 mouthful,she'll scrunge up her face, arch her back to fidget out of her bumbo, even wave her hands to hit the spoon away etc. Once or twice everything overturned on the playmat
Sighz, feeding times are beginning to be stressful for me as I can't figure why she doesn't like the food I prepared...haven't started pureeing vegs though, still at fruits stage. I shall persevere till a breakthrough or mealtimes will be nightmare...

Re: Purple Sweet Potato
Lynn, sometimes NTUC carries this 'Vietnamese Purple Sweet Potato' already pre-packed/pre-sealed for only $2 or $2.50. We bought few times for Sweet Potato Soup, very nice purple flesh. You can try asking the store supervisor if the NTUC outlet near your home sells them.
Re: Xavvylicious Blog
Prawnie, you are really a great mama, patiently peel off the green peas skin one by one! Salute you! I love Xavier's photos on your blog, such a darling! His eyes are so charming, will be a heart-throb when he grows up, I'm sure
I miss Bintan - love the sand, the sea and the leisurely feel there!
Miss meeting up with all bbs here. When's the next gathering (if any)?
