Revelations at breakfast.

I must get more organised as breakfast the BLW way is just that bit more time consuming. While Goosey loves trying both ends of a loaded spoon (as you're never quite sure what hidden delights might be lurking) it is messy, especially when most falls out when the spoon is turned upside down for an inspection before going into his mouth. Time was running out so I took over. He was fine with this intrusion into his playtime but did grab the spoon to inspect the contents before allowing me near his mouth. I realised that I was relieved which surprised me... I just didn't understand why I'd feel like this.

But I do now - at some level I'm afraid that if I leave Goosey at mealtimes (e.g. with his grandparents) they may not "get" BLW, or give him the wrong thing/wrong texture etc. At least I know he won't starve if they resort to mashing and spooning his dinners if needs be.
